Happy Birthday Frank. Since you are celebrating 21 for the third time, did you spent the day with three 21 year olds?

I feel, sometimes, like I spend all my time with 21 three year olds.

When I was 21 the first time I figured by 63 I would be retired, fishing & wasting away my days. It was my first birthday with Cathy and she told me getting old was required but growing up was not.

When I was 21 the second time, I worried way too much about my future, money, and my health. Again, I was with Cathy and she promised to stay with me even if I got sick and feeble. We were already poor.

When I was 21 for the third time, today, I had Cathy again by my side and came to the revealation that our life has been a great ride.
She was right all along.

So I promised her to never grow up.

I hope she takes it well.

Great friends are the best articles anyone can acquire in life.
Thanks for the thoughts and well wishes.

Franc, a lot of wisdom in those words. You are a lucky man to have spent the best years of your life with a woman that keeps you young at heart. I can only hope to be in your shoes when that time comes. Happy B'day again.

Hold it....gotta run to the liquor cabinet here...............ahhh, damm, that hit the spot......Franc, I've just tipped a wee bite of Yukon & here's an e-toast to your continued health, well-being, marriage & success!

I hope you had a very wonderful birthday, Mr. Rauscher!!!

Thank you my good friend.

I'm pouring one now to tip back back at ya'.

I must say I am overwhelmed by the attention I received today. Both in my real life and this sorta virtual one here. It has been a great day for me, quite likely amoung the best.

I had no idea and am humbled by the kindness and well wishes shown on my special day.

Here's to good friends and many many thanks.
