Time's up. So long 20s!

One year ago: http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=7905

, in one year I signed contracts to get the ball rolling with new land, new house and new garage, sold three cars, bought four, entered cars at Ford Carlisle for the first time and even placed (amazing), organized the second annual Tiburon meet at the dealer with a 50% increase in turnout, drove 143 mph (230 Kph) in an Audi A6 on the 'ol AB, and enjoyed a nice pay hike. :crazy:  The past 10 years would take too much time to list - wow.

Still looking for some land though :wtf:

I can't believe it was over seven years ago when I discovered Eric's site.  Props to you man for bringing me in to realize I wasn't alone out there in Fox Aero Cat world.  Seven years,  time is picking up speed.  Someone said that life is like a roll of toilet paper, the closer you get to the end, the faster it goes.

I'm very happy with what I've accomplished by this point in my life.  I'm not stopping here though.  I'm still setting new goals for the next 10 years.

My wife has a good party lined up for Saturday.  I don't know a whole lot of details but I think a night out in a 20-passenger Hummer with a group of friends is in the picture :headbang:

Happy Birthday man.

Just remember this quote and it'll make everything better.

"Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional."

Have a good one.

Yeah...thanks for making me feel a hell of a lot older now, too, Karl. ;) BTW, in December of this year, it will be the 10 year anniversary of COOL CATS. We're all getting old way too quickly.

Well, if you all end up naked in a big pile, make sure you get some photos for us. :hick:

Have a great weekend bro, and congrats on passing a milestone! You'll enjoy your 30's, don't even worry about that.

Thanks everyone!

Folks at work did a little something for me today which was real nice.  Debbie framed two of my crayon drawings of my dad's 84 Cougar that I drew when I was 7-8 years old.  I'll post pics later tonight (have to head out for a little while).

Yeah, Eric when I found your site, it was the yellow scheme.  I found it late '99 when I lived in Iceland.

My 87 LS had about 150,000 miles on it 10 years ago and I hadn't even bought the '74 Mark IV yet.  I didn't start using the Internet until '99 and one of the first things I searched for was Cougars which led to the CoolCats.net discovery.

I remember the day I turned 30. I don't remember much of anything after 11:00pm, or for the next two days for that matter, but everything is fairly clear up to then. :D
