I celebrated Aaron Burr's birthday with cake and candle at dinner.
Mary graciously posed for a phone picture with me
The waitress said "I thought it
was your birthday!"
I said No. It's for Aaron Burr. He would have been 248 today!
All my AB friends who were at the Hamilton Convention with me in NYC last week
traded email congrats on the birthday of our hero. (Yes - The word is OBSESSED)
I also checked out the East Coast Ski Jump competition today.
Here's the run that they use.
Here's the ice sculpting side show.
Jim reports that a skydiver he trained 30 years ago participated in this 357 person
world record parachute jump 22,000 feet over Thailand:
Here's the house with poly on the floors ready for a CO later this week!
Vacuuming the oak sandings at 10AM
From the same spot at 3pm
A view from outside the front window. I can't walk on the poly for two days!
I told Mary I had a dream we were standing here in our family room
and there was a Captain's steering wheel from the Master and Commander ship,
and our house was sailing into the next stage of our life.
Roxie asked Why No Super Bowl pics in last week's Best Emails?
OK Here he is!
I spoke to Mary's dad Wil in Minnesota this week.
He said it was going to be cold the next morning.
I asked How cold? and he said Twenty.
I said Well that's not so bad.
He said it could get even colder like twenty five.
I said Above Zero?
He said No -We always mean below zero
On the local radio station they had a call in contest about movies,
and the question to win a prize was
What do the letters S W A T stand for?
They gave the prize too the first caller who answered:
"Something Waterbury Aughta Try?"
