Red face Birthday Announcement

Hey guys. I'm thinking about trying an online birthday party at the end of the month. Has anyone done this before? I'll be turning 51 and i wasn't able to celebrate my 50th last year, so this has to make up for it.

I'm sorry about the confusion in the recent age posts. My profile had "accidently" been reset to show I'm 30. I guess I forgot I'm in the elder catergory too. Of course if ya'll have been following my story the past few years, a few things might have clicked:

1. I have 4 children ages 26,17,15, and 3.
2. I have almost 24 years of military service.
3. My ex was 26 years younger than me.
4. In my pictures I look older than dirt and what little hair I have is pretty gray.

I've never tried or participated an online birthday party before. Were you thinking of doing something with all your family and friends or were you thinking of having a Cellar birthday party? Would be kinda cool if we have conference webcam chat as a birthday party. We can sing and dance so everyone can have a good laugh. Heck, I'll sing any song you want and it won't even hurt my feelings if you laugh.

Well, Sarge, make a list and decide on the time and date. Since most of us are old farts here, I'm sure we have yahoo messenger. But if anyone wants to suggest another chatting program, please say so.

Well, it'll be Sarge's call. I suggested Cellar chat with webcam.

Cellar chat. Nudity required

Depends when it is
I can't generally chat, as I'm in the wrong time zone, and even when I'm on holiday or at the weekend, my Dad sleeps in the same room the computer is in, and my Mum has such sensitive hearing she wakes up if a mouse farts in the garden.

I did try to use the computer after hours when I fisrt moved here (before Dad was banned from the marital bed for snoring) but she said I was making a real racket on the keyboard and keeping her awake...

Anything I can manage time-zone-wise, I'm up for. Even rudey webcamming Well - not too rudey. Above the waist maybe. Which therefore doesn't include my boobies...

Can't believe this is all the notice I get for your birthday!
I usually require at least one clear payday!
Ah well. I'll draw you a card, ala my Reception class. At least then I can put my boobies where I'd prefer them to be!

I'm in! I don't have a webcam, tho, but I do have a microphone (if I can get it to work). I'll bring the MRE's, so Sarge can feel right at home!

I think Sarge is merely stating a birthday wish. You know what they say about the blowing out the candles on the cake birthday wishes, right? Ain't gonna happen.
