Charlie, you gona sail down the Apple River or the Willow River?  :D :D

Tom, the problem is the teenagers all want to be older so they can do things they are not supposed to do as youngsters and the older guys like us wish we were teenagers so we could do the things we used to be able to do. Unfortunately only the teenagers will have their wishes come true.  :D :D

Tom,

I'm sure that I speak for many on the FF when I state that we have all greatly benefited from the insight, advice, and words of wisdom that you have shared in your many posts. 

You have a wonderful way with words, and the perspectives that you share matches your eloquence.  I've met many folks that have great thoughts and perspectives, but lack the gift of eloquent communications.  I've met others that were great communicators, but I wouldn't give 2 cents for the contents that they were trying to share.

And then, on rare occasions, a person surfaces that is both an excellent communicator and also has some excellent thoughts worth sharing.  You fall into this category.

Thank you very much for your posts.  We've all been greatly enriched by your gifts to us via your posts.

I hope that you have an outstanding birthday!

Best regards,

Scott

Happy Birthday Tom! 

You are now as old as I am. And in case you did not know it, you are now on Medicare. Don't wait for the SS Administration to contact you like I did. Set up an appointment and go have them lay out all your options.

Some people from Medicare will be contacting you.  When they do, be nice to them, because they are from the Government and are there to help you. ;D

Thankyou everybody for the Happy Birthday wishes.  I was proud to share the day with you.  Gael gave me a Case #325 pocket knife with a green curly oak handle.  It's style says Moose.  I've not seen one before but it's pretty. 

Just for those who might keep track, I'm now in my 66th year. :D


Now I lay me down to sleep.........   ;D

Happy Birthday Tom.  You're the reason I came here quite a few years ago, and have been lurking ever since. I wish your old fishing buddy from years ago had followed thru on the contact, he's missing quite a community here as well as what I see as a great man.
