My husband's turning 40 in less than two weeks.

[SarahB]

If you were a guy turning 40 and you could have anything you wanted, what would it be?

(Note to Pat: besides the 52 inch Plasma TV :eyes:)

[KitchenWitch]

1. I could say something here, but then this thread would get locked

:evilgrin:

[SarahB]

9. Hmmmm...

:think:

[DS1]

32. a solution to the Israel / Palestine conflict?

:crazy:

[PVnRT]

2. Sex with three hot women

oh, and my wife, too, yeah...

[SarahB]

11. That's easier said than done

unless you have a lot of cash lying around. :evilgrin:

[PVnRT]

20. Or coke

[Midlodemocrat]

3. Get him the 52 inch LCD TV.

Less drain on the planet and unless you've got amazing eyesight, a fabulous picture. I got mine at Target for $788 at Christmas!

[LostinVA]

5. 52" is a Freeper TV -- no matter how you try to justify your hating ways

[LeftyMom]

12. 52" is small.

<- Has a 65". Really.

[LostinVA]

15. I knew you were a Freeper

You probably sneak triple whoppers with cheese, too.

[DS1]

16. probably won it at a pork chili cook-off

[LostinVA]

18. The first prize was a Hummer

[DS1]

19. Ted Nugent Edition

[LostinVA]

21. It has a wildebeest's head mounted right on the front grill

[DS1]

23. even the tires are leather

[LostinVA]

25. With Baby Harp seal fur seats

[DS1]

26. and side-mounted deer-tracking crossbows

it also runs on blood

[youthere]

28. with a pair of TruckNutz.

[theredpen]

38. But really, TruckNutz are the perfect accessory for any vehicle

Or appliance:

[LeftyMom]

17. I got it for $500! And it's HD!

:woohoo:

[LostinVA]

22. Sure...

Freeper.

[LeftyMom]

24. Dude, if that makes me a freeper

At least I'm a freeper with a screen so big the drive-in people come to my house to watch movies.

[LostinVA]

27. Can they get the sound through their car speakers?

[LeftyMom]

30. The thing has seven speakers built in.

You can hear it from orbit.

edit: whoops, missed two.

[Midlodemocrat]

36. You betcha.

Bigger the better, baby.

[SarahB]

14. We're saving for a house right now.

I wish, but not in the budget. :(

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. he already has you. i suspect its very hard to get him another exciting gift.

:hi:

[Sock Puppet]

6. this is the correct answer

:hi:

[SarahB]

7. Awww!!!!

:loveya:

[texas1928]

8. Good Lord!! He's OLD!!!

Did I say that out loud?!?

:hide:


Geritol.


:hide:



:P

[SarahB]

10. He doesn't look a day over 32.

Except for the gray thing. :yoiks:

[texas1928]

13. See, gray hair...

time for the khakis pulled up to the nipples and velcro shoes.

[DS1]

29. My own private Island in the South Pacific

thanks!

[MissMillie]

31. an on-call cleaning service for a full year

of course, I'd probably never want to give it up...

[Pale Blue Dot]

33. Three words:

Air Supply Karaoke.

You're every woman in the world to me, sweetheart. :loveya:

[qb]

34. Oops. I thought you said gay and turning 40. My bad.

[DarkTirade]

42. Stop the press, who is that?

:wow:

[qb]

44. His name is Marco Dapper

My obsession with him began at Hollywood Video when I saw him on the video box for Eating Out 2. If you can stand a little juvenile humor and bad acting, rent it. You won't be disappointed :)

[LanternWaste]

35. When I turned 40, the young lady I was dating at the time told me

When I turned 40 (actually, just over 18 months ago), the young lady I was dating at the time told me a week prior , "You get a birthday dinner-- think of ANYTHING you want to eat, and I'll make it completely from scratch..."

One of the better birthdays I've had in a while. :)


(She wasn't a cheap skate, mind you-- we were both of us a bit tight on money...)

[Bucky]

40. You should've ordered snake soup

If she's offering the make the whole meal "from scratch" then that means she'd have to go out and kill & clean a snake. Nothing but nothing will tell you if your gal's a keeper than seeing if she can kill, skin, and stew up a rattlesnake.

[shaniqua6392]

37. Here is what mine is getting when he turns 45 on March 17th...

Sexy lingerie for me. A candle. A bottle of tingling massage oil. A CD playing nice soft music. Oh..and I am going to get rid of the kids and the dogs for the whole night!!! This night of fun does not cost much in the way of money, but it will be priceless to us just to be alone. Hope that will help!! Have fun! :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

39. Hahahahaha! He's older than me!

I don't turn 40 until June.

Oh, and some alone time with his lovely wife would be really nice. But then, my SO lives 2000 miles away. :D

[DarkTirade]

41. Anything I say here would probably get the thread locked.

But I'll PM you my ideas if you're really curious. :evilgrin:

[Taverner]

43. A 1959 Corvette! A Porche Boxter! A car that screams "I'M HAVING A MIDLIFE CRISIS!"

:-D

Seriously, I'll be there soon. I turn 38 this year.

Personally, I don't mind the getting older part.

It's the body breaking down part that gets me.

I can handle the hair loss, the salt and pepper look and the being called Sir all the time.

I just wish my back would cowboy up and not fuck with me so much.

But seriously, get FinnFan the Corvette. He'll love it. If not, get him the video game "PGR" so he can at least pretend he's driving a vette.

[B Calm]

45. A new Lund fishing boat with a 200 HP 4 stroke outboard..

[OmahaBlueDog]

46. I was in Chicago, on business, with my family on that fateful day

I went to Lou Malnati's for Pizza with family and co-workers, and then went to Navy Pier and rode the Ferris Wheel. It was a great birthday.
