Today I completed my 58th trip around the sun. As Judy Collins said: "Who knows where the time goes?"

Congats, Bill. Hope some quality time was spent with your 6-string family.

The Batmobile was sold at the Barret Jackson auto auction, just down the road from me in beautiful Scottsdale, AZ.

It will make interesting living room furniture.

I guess if the new owner can afford the $4.2 million sticker, he can also afford the AZ license & registration fees which are based on a percentage of the value of the vehicle. In this case, it will probably cost him additional 10's of thousands of dollars.

All I can think of is the number of Alembic basses that would buy...

Happy happy, Bill! I ended my 57th trip on the 1st & my 38th yesterday (I figure I get 2 b-days after being dead on the table 4 times following a car wreck at 19).

ps - That's trips around the sun; didn't do any other tripping this month!

Happy Birthday, Bill. Just finished my 58th trip (around the sun, that is) last week. Hope your 59th is all good.

Hey, Bill
Happy Birthday. You should play each of your guitars for at least a few minutes apiece, though I know it would take you awhile to get through them all....

Probably another trip round the sun to get that task done.
All the best Bill, enjoy the next trip.

Happy, happy, Bill! I (and probably numerous others amongst us) are right behind you.
Today is Xander's 10 month birthday. Time does fly. He's started his new career already.

So, Edwin, how old does Xander have to be before he gets to play the Alembics?

Oh, and happy belated, Bill.

Sadly, there are no true Alembics in the house these days, just the Starfire. He'll have to be considerably older to play that. The Modulus is indestructible! There's actually a video that goes along with this picture and right after it stopped, he was biting the lower horn!
