Could that solo that you performed be the one in 6th grade known as the "Safety Kids"? Ahhhh, we have that on video if anyone would like to be amused! Hmmmm, can I say blackmail?!? ;} Also, if you are considering your "soft-soft" as piecing together a quilt, it doesn't count. HAHA

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOOBUTS...I didn't want to call and wake you up so I hope you are sleeping in heavenly peace! We will eat cake in your honor today. Can't believe you are 29. How is it being the same age as Grandma Bear. We were together those many years ago, so sad we can't be today. Go celebrate and do something in a swimming suit! Or better yet, wear your birthday suit and let the torpedoes chase you around. HAHAHA I LOVE YOU.
