Not sure I can go on.

And on, and on...
I don't know about the rest of those conditions, but I think that you can safely cease worrying about the priapism... unless you chemically induce it.

If it hasn't already started for you I'd say the only difference I've noticed since passing that particular signpost is that bits that never hurt before have started to.
Happy birthday buddy.

Happy Birthday

Welcome to the club.

Before I turned 50 I could remember everything... whether it happened or not.

What should you expect? Pretty much more of the same. Well at least that's my experience, so far.

But as the years roll on I think you should prepare yourself. To that end I ask you this question;

How good is your lawn?

... you forgot the sprouting hair in ears and nostrils and the roaming eyebrows... Hopefully someone will buy you a discreet male hair trimmer for your birthday. Have a good one!

The only thing that I would say is that you probably will begin to notice that "the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak".
Not all at once, but as time moves on that will occur.

Happy Birthday.
Hitting the big 50 is a great time. You get to apply all that knowledge and wisdom you've learned from a million mistakes getting here. Enjoy the rest of the ride and smile knowingly.

Well, just pretend you're John Wayne. Barbara Walters was interviewing him not long before he passed on, and asked. "If you could be any age what would it be?" He replied. "I would want to be a young and virile man of 50.

Happy Birthday!

You ain't gettin' any younger.

One thing that you can definitely except is an invitation that will arrive by mail - - an invitation to join the AARP, formally the American Association of Retired Persons! They don't really expect anyone to join at age 50, they just want us to feel old!

Happy Birthday!

I'm 5 months behind you (yeah, I lied on my TDPRI birthrate, that was before I knew folks here were so nice.) And not looking forward to it. My father, who is 74 and is still a full time college prof, says after 50, you wake up in the morning and all the wrong things are stiff.

Happy Birthday! I'm getting close. I've been having increasingly stronger urges to buy an old Buick Roadmaster, drive about 45 in a 70 zone and leave my left turn signal on all the time. how about you?

Other than the sudden and unpredictable onset of explosive diarrhea, you shouldn't notice a thing.


Now go get a colonoscopy, young man!

You made it, Congrats!

Hopefully you don't suffer from a bad back, or worse. Some of us are lucky, we can strap on a 8-9 lb. guitar and not go ouch after a few hours.
