A very special 60th Birthday
Hey dogs!
It's Saturday the third of Feb here( sydney Australia), dateline and all.
Yesterday was my 60th birthday, and what a day it was!!! I toured Sydney harbor on a lunch cruise with my wife, it was spectacular. I spent most of the trip on the bridge of a 60' catamaran with the skipper talking boats and salt water.
Then I spent about 45 min with an aboriginal lady and got to play a didgeridoo....What a trip!!!!!
Naked ladies lying around Bondi beach............
Smoked a very special cigar under a tree where green parrots were roosting, large white cockatiels (like the ones on the tv show Baretta) flying about.
kissed my lovely wife of 34 years, while looking at the Southen Cross on a warm Aussie night.
It truly was a very special day.
We fly home Monday.........See ya all then!
G'Day Mates
Bob

Re: A very special 60th Birthday
Wow! Congrats on the birthday, the 34 years, the.... well, the whole shebang!
Australia sounds pretty nice, and it's good to know that there's no place on earth you can't find someone to talk about tuna! 
See ya at the convention (but, uh, you don't have to mention the trip to Janis, okay)

By the way, does the toilet bowl really swirl in the other direction down under?

Re: A very special 60th Birthday
Congratulations Bob, in a few more years, you will be as old as me. I agree on the Bondi Beach thing. The scenery down there gets pretty nice.
