Since we’re over the dateline, it’s my birthday today. My wife wished me a happybirthday this morning and will take me out for dinner. She’s getting me a new band for my favorite watch, a Breitling. My sister called this morning and she and her kids gave me their wishes. I love kids and I’ve got a great relationship with my neice and nephew and they love their Uncle Tokyo. ---

Oh, and I’m 46 now, looking like I’ll need reading glasses to go with my contacts and if I had a lawn I’d be shooing everyone off it. Damn. ---

[QUOTE=TokyoPlayer] Oh, and I’m 46 now, looking like I’ll need reading glasses to go with my contacts and if I had a lawn I’d be shooing everyone off it. Damn. [/QUOTE] Welcome to the 46 club! I’d offer you a seat, but my feet are killing me. I’d offer to talk to you about issues of the day, but I can’t remember stuff for long. Also, I haven’t read the paper because I can’t find my glasses… 😃 Happy Birthday. Many happy returns of the day to you. ---
