For a brief moment, at the top of the hill...
At 5:34 ET this morning, I reached the summit of the hill known as "50".
Immediately after that, I began the descent.
As I continue along, I can not think of a better group of people with whom to work, trade, converse, argue, and man the philosophical and cultural barricades.
We have something special here.
What a gift to be part of it.
Officially "Over the Hill",

Proud to boast that I beat you to it by 7 years and 2 weeks!
Congratulations anyway...!
I'm the nut who wore the tie which read "This Is What 40 Looks Like"
and then passed it on to a close friend. . I was told that wearing
that tie on my birthday, at work, was an act of either surrender
or stupidity. . Hey, I thought it was a graduation, Rick!!! -- j

At 72, I still look in the mirror in the morning and see that 18 year old kid wondering what the hell is going on. And often I feel just like that kid, amused, scared, and hopeful. And far more centered now.
Galt's Gulch is my refuge of sanity in an increasingly crazy world.
Welcome to the bright side!
Enjoy the climb.
Once you reach 68 as I have, you'll know much moreabout the slide down.
For one thing, as you look back, it all goes faster and faster and faster.
with age you really do get wiser, you may not recognize it immediately but it does happen.
many more years for you.
Mine says 69, many Happy More.
Yes, Bill and I have the same birthday.
My wife is nicer.
