Many happy returns to a good Getaway buddy and all round nice guy. We will never forget your trek from San Diego to Grass Valley, just to come listen to Kendall and Utah in concert!

May your day be a good one and the coming year bring you all that you truly need, and some of what you want.

Live long, die happy my friend.

Aw, thanks, guys and gals. My wife and I went to a place that makes the best pancakes in town here in San Diego and I got full to bursting with buckwheat pancakes and sausage. She gave me a copy of "The FOrest for the Trees" to mak the occasion, a most delightful book on the intricacies of the writing mind. I love it.

She also made a grand flourish and presented me with "baby's first Medicare card"!!! LOL!!

As someone said on another thread, no matter which way you count it, you're still an old fart.

Fortunately I am not feeling very old. I have felt much older than I do now. I'm younger than that now, as the mad poet sayeth.

I think we need to reschedule the Getaway so it falls on Amos's birthday some year. We could have a good time, giving him a hard time. Beardedbruce would have a field day.

Happy birthday, Old Person.

Then the neighbors threw a block party, just by coincidence.

Jist a loverly day, all in all.

A mos' belated but elated Good Wish Of The West for The Getaway's official Human Juke-in-the-Box and a Mudcat Institution that many folks around here seem to be committed to for his birthday and the year it commemorates. Older, but still not in the way, and wise-end with the years but not wizened. Long may you strum!

Well damn! I missed it too (but then everybody missed mine the day before, which my wife and I celebrated by going to the Freight and Salvage for the celebration of Faith Petric's 95th--a couple of days early; now THAT was a party!) (my son took us out for dinner the next evening, bringing as my present his stunning new girlfriend Genevieve--but he wouldn't let me take her home).

Oops! And after all that BS about myself I forgot to wish my felicitations to Amos on his occasion, late though I was. Amos, I had no idea you were another of the 'Cat's old bastards, although I should have guessed it from your collection of songs about long lost love. Anyway, belated felicitations, old (very old) friend.
