As I'm writing this I'm listening to one of my guitars being played on the radio and it's my 40th birthday. What can I say

Everyone needs a "pick me up" on their 40th

Happy 40th Birthday Arnt -- you don't look a day over 32.

Tell the guy to get down off of your radio and sit in a chair like anyone else!

Happy Birthday.

Thanks everybody!

Yeah, a special moment on mixed emotions type of day. I'm working my a** off at the day job to finish some paper work on a school we designed. It was supposed to go out yesterday...or was it the day before?...16 hours straight now...just interupted of 2 hours with my 8 year old at squeeky fiddle practice, 3 hours sleep last night...so the tune on the radio was at least some celebration. Hey Anthony Z, I look like I'm about 65 now! Ok, back to the paper work...

Congrats, Arnt! Just wait, that squeeky fiddle will get worse. Wait until you have to sit through a recital of 50 of them - each taking their own turn.
