Another Year . . .

Well I turned 39 today. I feel great--as a matter of fact --I've never felt better. I am in the best shape of my life..Physically, Spiritually, and Emotionally. I wouldnt go back to being younger for a million dollars--I like it here--I'm Comfortable and yet at the same time very driven to accomplish a lot of things....So me and all the other people born in '67 ( Such as Vin Diesel, Tim McGraw, Pam Anderson and others) are gonna keep on livin large--

I was just listening to "Happy Together" by The Turtles yesterday.

It's a funny thought to think of Super Bowl I.

I think the Graduate has had much more lasting impact than In the Heat of the Night.
