Thank you! A few days into my second half-century now, and so far so good. Of course, I'm a little disappointed I haven't seen any personal flying cars or floating sky-houses yet, but I'm still hopeful.

Oh, and -yeah - I did make the thread title that way on purpose for the reason you mentioned. lol

I like the lyrics, but the rhythm is a bit tricky.

Happy birthday old man! Sorry

Happy birthday old man! Sorry for the delay. Been in Connecticut for the last few weeks with work and that shit kept me fucking busy as hell lol. But all the same glad you’re still around my man. Have a drink for me!

Hey there, Justin. Thanks! I've already had several drinks for just about everybody. I suppose one more couldn't hurt! lol

When TM was built there was no planned obsolescence...unless you call being shot down obsolescence...but he avoided that by being an armoured vehicle in a previous life. Not a very good one, but armoured nonetheless. Slow, clumsy and with an obscene turning circle he did survive several combat zones before becoming a milk wagon in South Dakota and eventually ending up as a kiddie amusement in New Mexico before finally being rebuilt as a Mardi Gras float for the LGBTQI community in Someones trousers.

And there it is the authorised TM biography, I left all the Oz stuff out cos its is all on film except for the sacking bit, when he was caught in a compromising position with Toto. It is why Judy started drinking. Shame on you TM.....

Look, in my defense, that whole thing with Toto was blown waaaay out of proportion. I was eating a peanut butter sandwich during a break and had set it on my lap a couple of times. And apparently some of the peanut butter must have "accidentally" smeared off in that region. Toto was simply trying to help me "clean up" in my dressing room, but got a bit over-zealous. And THAT'S when the director walked in. Hey, how was I to know the damn little mutt liked peanut butter so much? Wasn't my fault.

The Mardi Gras gig was a blast. Always have loved New Orleans. Wasn't too thrilled with the amusement park, though. At the end of every day it took me more than an hour to clean off all the puke, slobber, popcorn, cotton candy, and spilled drinks. Ick! *shudder*

The milk wagon job was a nice break after all the combat zones, but it was during the winter. Daaaaaamn.....That place gets c-c-c-cooooold! Had to use extra heavy duty antifreeze during that little stint. Just about froze my clankers off.
