I found some quotes which seemed quite appropriate for our aging hero ...

• Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional
• Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself
• You are only young once, but you can be immature for a lifetime
• Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened
• Birthdays are nature’s way of telling us to eat more cake (and drink more beer)

And remember K3rmIT, you may think you're special just because it's your birthday today ... but we think that you’re special every day! ;)

Happy Birthday! :D

A new world citizen - Welcome to Maya :D

[xo] would like to wish everybody a pleasant Christmas and a great 2009

Cheers!

... a year wiser?
... a few grey hairs?
... a couple of extra kilos around the waist?
... lots of congratulations from [xo] regarding his penultimate year in his 20's?

Perhaps all of the above? Who knows? Maybe cAo does, unless he has started to lose his memory t...
Mmm where was I? Oh yeah ...

Happy Birthday, you're doing a fine job of trying to catch up with the rest of us :D
Cheers!

Happy Birthday to XtraOld! Woooooooooooooohoooooooooo!! :D

4 years ago today, this site was officially opened and [xo] became a public reality. There have been members that have been here since the beginning, and over the years many others have come and gone (and some have even come back again :P) to and from our friendly clan - almost a social club. The fact that we are still running, and very actively at the moment, is a testament to the nature of the clan and all of it's members - past and present.

The site itself has gone through a couple of facelifts as we started with Desert Combat and Counter Strike and took on a sand coloured theme. Now we have something that more reflects the BF2 period - perhaps we get a CoD4 scheme to celebrate 4 years :P The information within the forums (both public and private) and in various pages and posts has kept growing over the years. Take a look back across some of the old posts to see what xo has been up to over the years, or war reports showing the ups and downs of various games, and the ever growing members as well. We're not going anywhere fast (in more ways than one ;)) and if we do it will be in an electric powered wheelchair, a mouse in one hand and a bottle of booze in the other.

Cheers to us! :D

Some of us is dead (DeadEd), someof us is a reptile (Frog), others are an instrument (Stalin), but noone is a real kicking horse.

Today our four legged friend hits another year.
They say that the fur gets softer by the years, but that don't apply to this one.
He WILL shoot you dead if you get to close.

Happy to see you are still in the saddle, kNegg

Happy birthday from your friends in xo

We call him many names, now we can call him old as well :)

He replies to names like princess, Christerix, bits and honey.
As times flies by, Christer keeps his calm and adds yet another year of wisdom

Happy birthday, Christer.
We still love you, even though you are getting old and grumpy

Cheers

Our beloved Sushi has turned 34, helping to keep the average age of xo in the 30's :)

Cheers fishy, we'll all down at least one for you.

A day late, but then what is 1 day at this age eh? :)
Sir Henrix is approaching puberty (the age for puberty in xo is about 30, maybe :P)

I am sure we will manage to raise a glass, or few, in celebration of his upcoming manhood, cheers!

Manjana has a birthday today. It's only his 41st so nothing special :P ... he probably doesn't even remember it himself so we'll have to do it for him by raising our glasses in honour of him! :D

Happy Birthday Manjana! Cheers! :)
