Well, who'd have guessed? No one will be more surprised than I but I reach the three-quarter post today--my 75th birthday. I hardly expected to be alive at this age, saying nothing of solvent and healthy. A nice wife helps promote the general mood of gemütlichkeit. More, they still pay me to yell at 25-year-olds, and how cool is that?
Afterthought: But I remember now that the "happiest age" is supposed to be 74. Uh oh.
Further Afterthought:
Solon: Count no man fortunate until he is dead.
Buce: Shut up, Solon.
Happy day! Thanks for your blog.
ReplyDeleteHappy day from Germany, too. Where did you find the "ü" on your keyboard?
ReplyDeleteWell, ü found it on yours, not so? For me, the most convenient way is to cut-and-paste from the Wiki definition. Helped me a lot last summer when I was reporting from Łódź.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday my friend.
