Happy birthday, Wodin.

Think of it this way (I'm the same age +1)- you made it to the age when computers keep all those rules for the board wargames we are now starting to be too forgetful to remember!

@Orm..yeah seen this trailer..not sure about it..I really enjoyed the German Stalingrad film..though I couldn't get the subtitled version and the dubbing was terrible. I will see what reviews are like of this Russian film though.

30 seemed fun, no longer to be written off as just a young adult.

39 bothered me more than 49 did though, not that 49 was any fun...

But it was more alarming to realize damn, I am no longer even close to young.

Enjoy each birthday though Wodin. Wargaming isn't dying, but we all eventually do :)
I have too many too complicated wargames, and not enough sufficiently interested non wargamer friends.

Happy Birthday Jason! You are middle aged and you have a long time to go. The older you get the wiser and smarter you get...just be sure to give your brain a workout everyday. War games are a great workout and don't forget to read as much you can! [X(]
