My guess is that he's about to become Demon 75.

Don't feel bad I got a call from my daughter this morning who said what are you doing this weekend and I said I dunno why, she said because it's you birthday ahh says I.
Yeah and if I make the next few days I'll be 75, 75 goddam years old, who would have thought. I sure as hell didn't plan on being here at this stage of existence I was figuring at 20 there we go a couple of more years and that's all she wrote.

Of course you will have to change your handle to demon75 and revert to being a newbie for a while !

That should piss you off ! Luckily there is a place you can go for that.

You know as I approach 75 I am struck bye the lack of service one gets now days from phone companies and other utility companies I'm having a snag with my voip it's got no dial tone  but I've got the net, now through here last night there was thunder storms but nothing really serious power didn't go out but this morning no phone any how it winds up that I talk to the support group through my daughter and skype and they have me do things and then run tests still no dial tone and then they want me to reconfigure my router which I hate doing anyhow go down and do that of course it doesn't work oh well it must some thing your isp has done so email them and because they are a small company and I half assed know them they get back to with in 1/2 an hour no nothings changed on their end and say Bill wouldn't you think that if skype is working the voip should be as well so tomorrow  back to the phone company and enough bs guys let's get it working. I suspect that if it was a little old lady she'd be screwed and when you get older, alright old, you need a phone in this neck of the woods because walking 11 K's with chest pains or a broken hip to get to the hospital is not right. I may just ream some one tomorrow for the hell of it.

Congratulations Bill.
That is a mighty fine achievement without a doubt mate.

Well, I've lost the sticky tape, so I can't wrap your present now.
How about this instead.
Happy Birthday Bill.  ;D
