I have met some of the greatest people in the world at the poker table. I’ve met a group of great people from this page. I’m always in awe of the fact that so many people visit here and when I receive an email from someone new – that tells me they’ve been reading for a long time – I kind of get that little kid shiver when the curtain’s about to go up at the high school play. It’s like…OMG! These people know me and they are out there…reading. WOW! If that ain’t kewl beans, what is?

Well…this is just as kewl. The kid just had his 2nd Birthday on the 27th.
