To celebrate, I think I'll go drive in the rain for five or six hours...
Seriously, it looks like it's going to be raining like a cow peeing on a flat rock from Knoxville to at least the Ohio river. And the Bimmer is a 12-year-old convertible that never saw the inside of a garage from 2001 to 2008, so I'm bracing for a bit of Chinese water torture.

Road trip in a thunderstorm... you know how to party! Happy birthday, Tam!
Happy B'day! BTW, think of the car payments your not making. :)
Happy birthday, and be safe my friend.
Roll safe, roll sound. (It's just what I say when someone's on a journey.)
Happy birthday, Tam.
Hippy-pippy-pappy Birthday, as my role model would say.
Best wishes.
Best wishes, and be safe.

Happy Birthday Tam
A memorable day, to be sure. Sandwiched in between JMB yesterday, and Robbie Burns tomorrow, I'd call that a threefer.
The real claim to fame?
Peter (Bayou Renaissance Man) informs us that today is also the anniversary of the invention of the beer can.
Now how symbolic is that?
Happy B'Day!
Many happies today, Tam! Have a real blowout--and if blogging is light (nonexistent?) for the next couple of days while you recover we, your ardent followers, will understand...

Happy birthday.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday Tam, although a road trip driving in a leaky Bimmer during a downpour isn't exactly my idea of a celebration.
Have a safe drive and celebrate when you get in!

Best birthday wishes from the PRK.
Happy Birthday Tam--safe travels, especially over Jellico!
Happy birthday, and as we used to say back home in Alabama, keep it between the ditches.
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday, Tam! :D
another year closer to the grave.
Happy birthday! Don't pay any attention to T-Bolt ...

Happy birthday, and may you have many more!

Happy Birthday, Tam.
Stay dry ;-)
Happy Birthday Tam!
I drove Triumph TR 4's daily years ago. I was able to keep good tops on them since they were removable and cheap, but I know about leaks coming from everywhere else!
I had to drive in to work during one of the Atlanta "Snowjams" in 1983, and you'd be surprised how much slush would come through a few pin holes ( really, you could barely see them), and push up a floor mat enough for it to land in your lap!
It's really silly to need to wear your rain gear inside a roadster with the top up....
The worst part was getting to the mall, finding it locked up and having to drive back in that mess with very wet pants for nothing. At least I was on salary.
Happy Birthday!
Drive safe, and take comfort in the fact that it would be much worse on a bicycle :)
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday Tam and good luck with the drive.
T...Happy Birthday and many more...keep the wheel's on the ground and the open side up...BTW Shoe goo works great on old rag tops that leak...look's kind of strange but it work's. ;-)

Happy Birthday! Best of luck on the road.
Happy Birthday Tam. Here's a little present that I'm sure you'll enjoy if you haven't seen it already. Go to you tube and search for the song; "I like guns". It was put together by an Aussie and I'm sure it will be on your own personal hit parade with a bullet.
Happy birthday. Stay dry.
Captcha word: cation... either it needs a va, or it's saying you should be cautious. Either way is good.
Happy Birthday, Tam. I wish for you to have fun with your friends and family, enjoy shooting in a cosier climate, and celebrate with those who love you. May your journey be calm and relaxing, your favorite music be playing, and may the wind be at your back!
Happy B-day, Tam, from another of your loyal readers. If you think the car's roof will leak bad enuf, bring along some soap!
Happy Birthday to a beautiful lady!! May your bemmer not get you so wet!
Walt
Happy birthday, darlin'. :)
After you dry off, Roberta will likely appreciate your schlepping all the mail to a less public corner of the cottage.
:)
Let me know sometime if "and many more" is as good a read as it looks to be.
Happy Birthday Tam... May Health and Happiness be yours
Happy birthday,Tam.
May your travels be safe.
Happy Birthday Tam! Stay dry!
Happy Birfday again, Tam.
Happy birthday, Tam!
I'll be simple and just say Happy Birthday Tam, and may it be a great day!
Hippo birdie two ewe!
Drive safe and enjoy the day, Tam!
Have a wonderful and happy birthday!
Have a happy birthday and safe travels!
Happy Birthday Tam!!!!
Your birthday tribute is on my blog.
Many happy returns!
Happy B'day Tam, or as we say in the Great White North :

Happy Birthday, youngster. Sounds like a perfect opportunity to get another 5-screw. Keep up the good work.

wv: femal... oh yeah
Happy Birthday, O Mistress of Snark!
Like I said, better not older.
Happy birthday.

Happy Birthday, and safe home.
Happy Birthday, Tam!
Maybe if you crank up the fan when you have the heat on, you can create a positive pressure zone to keep out the water. Or you could try the SR-71 method, and drive so fast that the air friction heats up the body panels, making them expand and seal the gaps.
Happy Birthday Tam.
Happy Birthday!
Hope you had a safe trip!
Many happy returns, Tam!
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday Tam!
Happy Birthday, Ms. Tam.

Happy B-day
HBTY kiddo. "Singin' in the rain."
Well Tam Darling, what did you not get for your Birthday that you wanted?
Keeping in mind the $20 limit for close but casual acquaintances...
I still have 20 lighter flints for your Zippo.
capt'cha=villa Birthday Wishlist?
Hippy Birfday! Hope you had a great *mumble*second!
Think of it as the 13th anniversary of your 29th birthday. Happy B-day from a loyal reader.
Happy birthday, and many returns.
Hope your birthday is a good one and ya have many more GunGal. Yours is my favorite gun blog. Quite often I learn something new, or old, from you. Thanks for sharing. God Bless America.
Have a happy 39th, Tam. My wife has been celebrating hers for 23 years now.
Happy birthday, Tam!
P.S. I used to drive a Triumph TR3 in the rain with the top down and the tonneau cover up. I stayed dry as long as I kept moving. Cops probably frown on that nowadays.
Happy birthday, enjoy reading your blog every day.
Happy birthday, lady! Looking forward to the story. :)
Happy Birthday from Oxford MS.
Happy Birthday, Tam.
Happy B-Day Tam! Hopefully you're home by now...
Happy Brithday! Put the top down, turn the heater on, crank up the radio and just drive fast!

WV: frockle. Used to fasten a dress?
Happy Birthday, Tam. I had rain for most of the day as I drove over the Malahat on Vancouver Island. (I have wonderful mind pictures of mist, trees, ridges, inlets, etc. and what passes for mountains on the south part of the Island.)
Regards.
Happy birthday, Tam!

Happy Birthday from Texas, li;' filly!
Yeehaw!

Happy Birthday! Best Wishes!
Happy Birthday, young woman.
I can relate. Jenni and I had a leaky BMW convertible for some time. Once she got to about a third of a million miles (quite literally more than that), we found that it was a more fiscally responsible decision to donate the car to AmVets and claim it on our taxes than to sell it outright. Strange. I kind of miss that car... Happy birthday anyway!
Hope you had a wonderful birthday, despite the rain.
Happy Birthday (belated)!
Spent Sunday playin' hookey away from the web, so Best Wishes A Day Late. Cheers!
Happy Birthday!
I can only comment that you look a lot younger in your pictures that one of your co-bloggers says your age is.
You share the same birthday as Billll , although you're much younger and better looking than he is.
He spent part of the weekend with his new evil black rifle, a Leader Dynamics T2 Mk 5.
From Billll: "Several of the other guns there were tacticool to the max so the Leader looked like a Honda at a Low-Rider show. It shot just as well, though."
gotta...
make...
100!
And a happy birthday to you, too.
Seems we also share a predilection for driving convertibles in the rain.
My Triumph would stay dry with the top down if you kept it above 55. Of course when your exit came up and it still hadn't stopped raining....
