When Were You Born?

I was born in 1965 .

No. 6? That's the highest I have rated in years in anything! And I didn't have to react to a starting line christmas tree or play head games with anyone to attain that position like I do when I race! It is indeed a privelage and an honor to be among folks who are great fans of the "Duke" and the "Old West" of which I have been a part of for the greater part of my life. And its all because of my friendship with what is apparently a long lost son of the "Duke", Duane, who has helped me greatly with my racing since I retired and he retired in 2007. Both of us worked at the same company. I was controller and he was a fabricator and welder in our shop but we had racing ties and those lead us to real friendship. A year or so before his death and the day after he got out of the hosptial from having a hear attack, he and his wife drove to Las Vegas the day before Thanksgiving to be with me while I raced. That is real friendship!:teeth_smile:

Hello, born in 1948

I was born in 1953 in Emmett, Idaho. I still live here.

Yes, fellow "Baby Boomers", of the Golden Era, . . although the gold is getting a little scarce.

I know I'm veering (ot)with this . . . but I'm confused. Who died? Who was in the hospital after having a heart attack?

Duane is still alive, right?

P.S. Thanks, Keith, for continuing to update our ever-growing list! (See? I got it back on topic again .)

Hi keith

not sure I am in "the rich tapestry of life" but I was born in 1957.

Hi

Looking at the list I've gone down to ninth I must be getting younger.

Regards

Chester, I guess I was letting my age show in the above post! It should have said: "About a year before her death...."! They went to Las Vegas to watch me race on Thanksgiving day, 2006 and she passed away in January, 2008. Sorry, I can see how it might have confused folks!

Just a young un 18 feb 1970 in Dumfries
I can post my address so you know where to send the bottles!!
Only kidding

As an extremely heavy user of adult beverages for about 40 years (but no longer because of medications I take), just wanted you guys to know that the stuff rots your brain. :confused::whatchutalkingabout

I was born 1974 in Graz (Same place of Arnold Schwarzenegger), Austria. In 1974 Duke made only McQ ! :teeth_smile:

P.S. Thanks to all of you for adding your info so Keith can add you to our 'rich tapestry' of members worldwide, who are having fun together, thanks to our common interest in John Wayne!

Whatza "brain"? Don't think I ever seen one except out of a cow or on my plate with scrambled eggs! Haven't ever used one cause I heard they were dangerous! But a I hear the term "half a brain" used a lot but haven't figured that out either! If someone has a spare good one, send it and I'll try it out! Oh yea, please send instructions for installation and usage!
