Thank you all for the birthday greetings. It was quite a surprise! Leave it to my big brother to manage to get me on his fishing site before I could manage to get him signed on to Facebook!

BTW, I am not ashamed of my age, I became 53 on the 10th, but I don’t look a day over 39! If any of you are Marines, you know the significance of that date! Yes, every year the whole Marine Corp celebrates my birthday with me.

Oh, a big thanks to Stuart for the name. It really kinda fits!

I love you, baby brother…
