Soliciting Opinons on Turning 40

    So in roughly 33 months, actually according to timeanddate.com, it is 2 years, 9 months and 7 days, or to look at it another way, 1011 days until I turn 40. For the curious it is March 18.
    So I want to do something cool, something spectacular and I've been wondering what. Or should I shoot for several things?
    I really don't know and several things have popped in my head, along with fun commentary...
    Write a book - Possible
    Run in a marathon - Yikes, I don't even like to walk
    Compete in a triathlon - Even more demented
    Get married - More possible than anything else, even though my friends won't like her
    Climb a mountain - Woodall Mountain (Elevation 806 feet), Mississippi here I come
    The danger Dan medley of skydiving, basejumping and swimming with the sharks - Because I secretly want to die
    I'm taking suggestions people, feel free to offer them up.

    Jay, I had not done it until Uncle Sam made me do it, but jumping out of an airplane is a thrill that I cannot describe.

    Denial works for me. This year, I will celebrate my 39th birthday yet again. I'm thinking of making it an annual event.

    Have a nice libation and smile, knowing that you're not getting older, you're getting better. At least till you get as old as spnited.

    40 is the new 20 - so enlist and head off to Baghdad...or do a triathlon. I've done a few "sprint" triathlons. 600yd swim, 10k bike, 5 k run. They're not too bad.

    Thank the god your worship you're alive, and then have another beer. Or you could do like me and my buddy Shawn Kemp (I'm exactly one day older), and father lots of children by then.
