Thanks, guys!
Hehehe! (Scooby-laff) Yeah, I'm having a blast, didn't think it was going to happen this year. I'm cooking dinner tonight -- leftovers and beef-broccoli-Chinese-stir-fry! I don't about cake but I have my family and that's all I can really ask for this year.

Scott,
HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT HATCHDAY!! Oh, I should say Birthday, but who's worried about semantics... Hope the day has treated you well, and the "old age" has backed off for the day.

You're welcome, Schming!
Brant, I've had a great day and the new boxer pups are curled up clappy as little hams. Erm, strike that, reverse it: happy as little clams!
One way or another the Earth's going to drag me around for another year, kicking and screaming the whole way or nice and quiet-like isn't going to matter as long as I get there!

John, Mom's doing well, she's tough. She's had chemo, another surgery and now she's doing another round of chemo. The doc says the cancer markers are finally coming down but it took a while to get there.
It's actually beginning to look good for Mom!
