They say it’s your birthday…

Yep, it’s my birthday! I’m 30…in hex.
Sorry math joke…I just turned 48. Gosh, where did the time go? And why don’t I feel that much differently than I did at 24? Same problems, I just make a lot more money :).
Not any major celebrations this year. My family celebrated with me while I was on vacation over Memorial Day, and I was taken out to dinner last night. Tonite I’m hanging out for a while, then heading off for my regular Thursday choir rehearsal.
Anyways, I share this birthday with Wade Boggs (the great Red Sox 3B) and Doogie Howser. Actually, Wade is 48 today as well. Years ago, I was sitting next to Wade and Bob Stanley (an infamous Red Sox player) at a bar at Logan Airport in Boston. I was waiting for my brother to arrive; they were with the team waiting for the weather to clear so they could leave for some AL city.
I sat there thinking “hey, you should tell Wade you have the same birthday.” And then I turned chicken. Ah well. Like what would he have said? “Uh, isn’t that something.”
Well, it’s always amused me!

Happy Birthday Beth!
speaking of, did you see Doogie Howser in “Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle”? If you haven’t, he’s pretty funny and pretty out-of-Doogie-character.
Hope it’s a great one!

Happy birthday to a fellow Gemini, Beth. I believe in extending birthdays as long as possible until you’re 50. Then you can fehgeddaboutem.
Bob Dylan is 10 years and one day older than I am. While I’d love to share that bit of information with him, and I’m sure he’d be as underwhelmed as Wade would have been, as well.

Many happy returns of June 15th, Beth, also from a fellow Gemini. I used to be 48 once—and I will be again!

Happy Birthday Beth! I bet you don’t have clip shows on You Tube, but you probably should. :)
