Birthday celebrations for seniors are top of mind for the old codgers this week. They discuss how they like to celebrate their birthdays (Gary quietly celebrated his 74th last week), their best birthdays, and whether they like birthday parties. Gift ideas for seniors are on the agenda as well as the sad decline in sending real paper birthday cards, not digital "cards". When it comes to birthday celebrations for seniors, the guys do represent diverse views ranging from "Meh, don't bother me" to "Yea, another birthday party!" They all agree that when it comes to the big numbers—70, 75, 80—a serious celebration is in order. In the final analysis, they all agree that recognizing that they made it another year is worth a modest celebration.
