Happy Birthday to ME!!

Today, January 31st, is my birthday . . . this year, I am the same age as the year I was born, '55.

Years ago, someone told me about one's "Golden Birthday," the year they're the same age as the date they were born (in my case, thirty-one). What is my current birthday called?? Platinum?? Diamond??

So, in honor of my birthday, I'm gonna have a giveaway: I'm gonna give you my address.
Raymond K. Houston
2017-A Ann Ave.
St. Louis, MO 63104

Now, send me something . . . I've already given you two suggestions.

(Gotcha!! LOL!!)

  3. Thank you Brooke, and thank you Greg . . . I'm richer by far with just your friendship!!

    Greg, I hope that's a can of creamed corn (it's all this "old man" can handle) . . . if it's a can of worms, you can keep it (I'm not much for fishing), LOL!!

  4. The pressure! It's already a belated birthday and... ummm... well... panic has now set in, and that makes me freeze in indecision.

    At least I can say Happy Birthday!!

  7. Funny you should ask, Kelly . . .

    I refuse to set foot in any department store between Thanksgiving and New Years (so, no Christmas gifts) . . . a couple weeks ago, I bought Ed a homebrew beer kit . . . last weekend, as a combination Christmas/birthday gift, Ed bought me a great pair of shoes; today, he took me to the theater to see "The 39 Steps," a comedy based on the book that Alfred Hitchcock based HIS movie on (and brunch beforehand) . . . it was a great play, with four actors playing 150 different roles!! . . . now, we're on our way to the baths, to relax in the sauna, jacuzzi, etc.

    Thank everyone for the birthday wishes . . . I should have a birthday more often!! (but, once a year is enough)
