Happy Birthday to you and the other old fogeys on the Forum.  Me?  I turn 64 later this month -- which proves that I'm still a youngster (well, sort of :evil:).  Ask Nancy for the entire story. :-D :-D :-D

I need to see convincing data that he was born in the USA and how he financed his higher education. I knew his father so that establishes that he had one

but many questions are still unanswered. Nine months before he was born a hive of bees gathered on the bedroom screen. One bit his father and he pulled

his stinger out.  That's what they wrote in his HS year book so it must be true.  Just check on the date the bees were there and a rough idea can be established

as to his birthday.

I know because we are related.  That's a secret that I have kept for 80 years but now that I'm on the downslide I feel it's necessary to admit to the dark side

of the families.

Happy Stinger Day Richard.

  Keep those Apples coming!
  Sorry I didn't say hello at the Reunion but I was busy baby sitting Stan Back.  I did have a nice chat with Ed Traddup about Courtney Hizer, and from the diaz, you looked Magnificent! 
  Your side of the family got all the good looks no matter what Freud claims.                                              One Run Bob

Since you so ably describe our family ties I will just "piggy back" on you as you age.

That shields me from the arrows and slings hurled toward the families.

It also cushions the impact on me as I too tear off the calendar sheets.

Oh Ya, Happy Birthday, kin.

Thanks from The El Mirage Ladies also.

Now I'm confused, are you an apple picker or a cherry picker.   :?

Happy Birthday Richard.
