Right you are, Hal. In addition......
My beloved hound dog Ruby born on 05 Nov, me on the 6th, and my No.1 Son on the 7th. Great things have happened in November!

I will up the average a hair, was 73 last August. Was born Aug 16, 1945 right after Japan surrendered, the nurses dubbed me "Victory Joe". I consider that quite an honor. Lots of great stories in this crowd. When you are young, you are always wondering "when will I be old enough to ........... Then when you get older, it's more like "where the hell did all those years go?" Best to all of you!

I’m feeling older but I guess I’m on the young side!
On Election Day in 1976, November 2 1976, thanks to my mother and father And the Lord up above, my life began.
I always liked November when I was younger, but much more so since I’m chasing Grouse usually around that time and it is hunting season in general. Stan |

Dang! Like Rick I'm only here as a miracle of modern medical science . I always thought I was on the senior end of this august company and now I find I'm just another member of one of the best senior citizen centers on the world wide web. I can assure ya that like everyone, the older I get the better I was .
Guess I expected to see some guys in their 20's but then I think the dues for this club are a bit steep for shooters that age, woulda been for me. One gun safe was my limit back then and it wasn't full by any means. We'll have to have a thread on Muscle Cars and Motorcycles and fast horses some day, bet there's some stories here too with this sites average age. Good idea for a thread Alex . Keep em coming guys, if you forget your birthday just look at your drivers license .

I am 70 but watching the todo about George H.W. Bush, I think I will do my darnedest to live that long, he seemed to have had a good life after 70, doubt that I will jump out of any airplanes, just saying. I think moving to Wyoming should add at least 10 years to my life. We get there this spring.

I think the line about 'miracles of modern medical science' from Rick and Doug surely fits most of us that have lived a few years, even if they were rode hard and put away wet. The threads on cars, motorcycles and horses will be great topics for another day. Just ran into a guy at a family get-together last Fall, who drove in with his street legal '50's Sprint car replica complete with a hopped up V8-60 flathead power. He was maybe a bit over 80, and is a retired HS shop teacher. I drooled all over it, but mainly because I was asking questions that most younger folks couldn't ask or understand. He was appreciative of the fact that I understood.

My brother turns 70 in a few days & he's a LOT older than I am.
I'll be 69 in the Spring. Right now, that makes me 68 and he's 69. Knees, hip and back aside, I'm just a kid.
