It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.

Well, Elmer...you met me at CNTL...I hide my age well, don't I? :lol:

And for those who haven't met me, I'm OLD but I haven't quite attained that level of age advancement...

I can only hope that I will be one day as youthful as Roly. He's my hero! :thumbsup:

Dang! And here I thought I had you fooled! Guess the Oil of Olay isn't doing the trick anymore. :fb (Hmmm, based on that emoticon, it looks like the Rogaine isn't working either.) :lol:

I had you pegged right from the get-go. You're 23 now right? Elmer should have known that when we sang Happy Birthday to you at CNTL.
So.....is Elmer invited to CI-CO 2007?

You were so busy doing your duty keeping the "Thread Killer" thread from being killed you must have missed the post on the CI-CO. :lol:

As far as whether or not you are invited, I will have to think about it and let you know......Okay, you're invited! :lol:

Thanks Betsey!

Now to convince the wife that a teardrop gathering is the best way to spend our anniversary. I may have to be creative for this one! :thinking:
