Hey, Rick, you got three songs tailor-made for you on your birthday. Jeri, great adaptation of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," a song that always reminds me of the execution of Private Eddie Slovik (now THERE's a bummer). It took me a little longer (maybe ten seconds) to figure out your source, Pete: "Roll Over, Roll Over" ("Ten men slept in a boarding house bed..."). And I didn't have to think a bit about yours, Bonnie--you didn't give me the chance to puzzle it out for myself.

Anyway, good work, all--and how many people have been so blest, Rick?
