    Last week was a milestone birthday. I am officially really old entering my 8th decade. Our fellow Forum member, Alan helped me celebrate. My IWC of choice was the VC Portofino, while Alan wore his DFB BP. I tried the best I could to get my wife to notice that beauty. The Vintage IWC matched my Vintage age. LOL

    My children, who have great senses of humor, provided a cane with bike horn and rear view mirror for their aging father.

    Alan and his DFB, unfortunately it is cutoff in the picture.

    Happy Birthday my esteemed friend!!! Your new cane is just perfect for scooting around your 'hood and will warn your neighbors of your imminent arrival! LOL! Aging jokes aside...it is an honor to know you and call you friend.

    Happy Birthday Bill! We have all seen the large variety of Nad Shots. Now there can be a "Bill Shot" with IWC on wrist and hand on horn. "Bill Shot". Has quite a ring to it. Don't try to say it three times fast! :-)
