Some parts ripe and the rest not new
Over-the-hill there’s no way telling
Cause some of those parts are always smelling
He’s got nose and a great bouquet
He’s sixty-two on this fine day!
Well, I’m with Tom and also dry
Make mine white, cause I’ll be by!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB!!

Uncle Bunk & Aunt Jan

If all be true that I do think
There are reasons we should drink
Good wine, old friends and being dry
I’m sure there are other reasons why
How about 62 years of complex aging
Now coupled with wine blog saging
A birthday drink is a reason why
So pour the Pinot I’m coming by!!

Best wishes for a great day and many many more birthdays. (You are like a wine - but maybe more like Mad Dog - enjoyable and cheap!)

Then he consumes two bottles. Happy Birthday!! John has enjoyed great health at a great age because everyday since I can remember he has consumed a bottle of wine except when he has not felt well. Then he consumes two bottles.
Happy Birthday!!

Actually, I was thinking of great wine terms to describe my good friend John - terms liked "subtleness", "great legs", and "interesting complexity" but thought better of it. Instead I think more appropriate terms to describe John might be be "corked," "full bodied", and "over the hill." Happy Birthday, John.

In your prime, your hearing may be slightly on the decline, but your taste is well in tact. Thankfully wine doesn't talk or you might get an earful. However, if you ever start talking to the wine, then we will say "Over the Hill". In sum, the only thing you may be losing is the ability to comment on and delight in the broken down symphony of sound your body makes after mass consumption of good food and wine. But, your ability to enjoy, ponder and convey to others the things that make wine-drinking an incredible experience is still ripening. So, eat, drink and be merry in the Willamette and bring a couple cases of the best home for your seedlings, so we can can understand what all the fuss was about. Above all, remember, as the years pass by and your wine cellars get too crowded, Toot and I are here to help lighten the load.
