    Today is my birthday

    My wife and I were having breakfast in a small cafe close to our home. We were eating on the patio. I told the waitress it was my birthday and she said I could have a slice of pie of my choice to take home. I chose custard and she brought me two slices, one for each of us. When it came time to pay our bill the waitress said another customer, a lady heard me say it was my birthday and bought our breakfast. That happens to us fairly often. Our daughter came over later and brought me a gift card to Jersey Mike's. and took us out to lunch. I had a great day. By the way I am now 88.

    Happy birthday Gopher! Dang, you guys have a Jersey Mike's? The original is around the corner and down the road from me. The #1 is THE classic sub.

    You have earned the right to tell corny jokes, and quote prices of gas from 1968.

    Happy Birthday! And happy birthday to ME as well!

    10/03/1952

    Not real happy about turning 70. My plan was to live hard, die young and leave a good looking corpse. Well that plan is obviously in ruins.

    I do NOT want to live to 93 like my dad did. So I guess I'm going to start having to live dangerously. Scary!
    However it turns out I have no complaints. I have packed a lot of living, loving into this 70 years. Thank you Lord.
    I truly believe we need to get back to basics.

    Get right with the Lord.
    Get back to the land.
    Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.


    May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
    and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
    praise glorious!

    Happy birthday! My father-in-law is a few months your senior; must have been a good year! If I make it to his age and am half as spry and sharp, I’ll be doing well.

    Mine’s in a few days. I’ve been feeling particularly old lately, but it seems most of you all have a few decades on me.
