Music! Cake decorated in, or in the shape of notes, notes hanging from the ceiling, music sheets as table cloths. Find out his favorite church songs, make a scrapbook. Have folks wrap their presents in notes or sheet music, or black and white. Black and white tableware.
Since over the hill may not exactly appropriate for church, you so have some black there. Have the choir sing, then join in the fun. What colors should they dress in? Yea, that's right.

If he likes sports, do something sporty. Play whatever kind of music he likes. Make a photo dvd of him starting as a baby and all the way up to the present. Playit to his favorite songs. Just make it about his last 40 years, and show him how much you love him. This theme stuff is overrated.

Hmm...black crepe is for the 50th birthday, so probably stuff from his 12th birthday, if you can lay your hands on any of it at his parents' home, would be lots of fun...go back 28 years and have a "remember when" party, and put a backdrop of a cliff (from the bottom, of course) behind HIS chair so that you can "rib" him a little about the now-level ground. A coffee mug that says, "40 in doggie years is DEAD!" makes for a nice touch, too...hehehe...

Austin Powers? If he's turning 40, that's what he's going to start behaving like pretty soon.... (sigh)...

How about "Beethoven" with his hair all wild and totally into his music?

Keep it classic-Over the Hill. If you want you can put your own twist into it.
