On this day 40 years ago, at this exact moment, Pamela and Michael Johnson gave birth to a boy. 40 years on this Earth. The things I've seen. Things I've done. Things I've screwed up. I plan on screwing up a lot more things for the next 40.

When I turned 40, I probably would have said B.S. but as I'm a year and a half from 50, I can now confirm. frown

Happy birthday Apple-spawn!

I remember my 40th. We shot E36 M3, drank E36 M3 and ate E36 M3 all damn day. It was a great day. Two days later I’m 43 and wondering what the hell happened.

This Friday we are indoor Karting in Buffalo Grove at K1Speed. If any Chicagoans want to brave the weather, we'll probably be there around 8ish. Then on Saturday were going for open skate at the Crystal Lake Ice house.  

Should be fun.

40 isn't all bad. Happy Birthday. 

Even over 50 isn't too bad. 

Stupid E36 M3 takes longer to recover from. That's about all.

Happy Birthday Appleseed!  40-45 are pretty awesome, it’s when the reading glasses arrive that things go downhill.

But age is just a way to keep score and you’ve leveled up.  Way more wisdom to your words now.

40 was no big deal for me, 41 kinda sucked.  There are a lot of "40 under 40" lists out there, YPO (young president's organization) is for people 40 or under, etc.  So at 40, I still had a year to make something of myself.  At 41, the race was officially over.
