Christie Wood: The night is still young. Hit the bars, whoop it up, and I will see if I can get you a police escort. Of course it would not be to your home. There would be a slight detour to 5500 N. Govt. Way. Just kidding. I hope you have a nice night with your family. Happy Birthday.

DFO: The birthday celebration was pretty tame b/c my wife gave me gifts earlier this month and we're going to have an official observance with the family Thursday. We picked up Amy Dearest at the jam-packed Spokane airport last night. She brought me a T-shirt from a fall break trip to Guadalajara, Mexico. Beyond that, I retired with a smile on my face last night, after seeing Amy and Brenda sitting on the couch with their arms around each other. To still have the love of grown children is always a great birthday gift.
