    108! Wow! I saw a national geographic special on the oldest man in Mississippi. He was turning 108 soon, white hair, had a bit of grumpiness about him, but still seemed as smart as ever. Born the same year man first flew, he never took kindly to women getting the right to vote (in 1920) before he did. Some say he still has equal rights issues from the ordeal. Whatever the case, he's still a great Mississippian.
    Oh, and happy birthday Chip.

    Since I couldn’t make a cake big enough for all of those candles and I couldn’t find the chip off the ole block …..I decided to send you some phases to help you communicate more effectively with your co-workers.

    “Hold it right there, hombre! I may be a leeetle might older 'n you, but I c'n still slab-off with the best of 'em."

    "Move away from that grinder reeal slow-like, son."

    “Gall blasted young whippersnapper!"

    "Durn persnickety female."

    "Ya crazy galoot!" (a rinselberg favorite)

    And when yur all done w’da work day… “Let's mosey on down to the diner."

    I’ve never been offended by your posts (when you had free expression here on the ole bored) "I reckon yer jus' an ornery old coot”

    So I hope you had a "dagnabit, dadgumit, gall darn it, and consarn it" happy birthday.
