Happy 60th birthday to the doper twins **Twicks** our mod with the most, and **Baker** aka, _Death Mistress of The CDP_. From the Episcopal Church Book of Common Prayer: _Watch over thy child, O Lord, as her days increase; bless and guide her wherever she may be. Strengthen her when she stands; comfort her when discouraged or sorrowful; raise her up if she fall; and in her heart may thy peace which passeth understanding abide all the days of her life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen._ **HAPPY BIRTHDAY Y’ALL!** ---

Twix and I found out that not only were we both NYE babies, but both born in 1954. ---
