Rather than wasting time reading this ol’ thing, drop Jodi an email at thorpgang@hotmail.com and wish her a happy birthday. Her birthday was today (Sunday), and she says it was a good one. But I’m sure she’ll like hearing from you.

I’m a lucky fellow. Twelve years married next month – even my dad couldn’t believe it’d been that long already!

A guy I used to work with would ask, “Happily?” Absolutely.
