Happy Happy Birthday!
….to me! And Joe E. And I’m sure a number of BootsnAll members. Every year on August 12 (in the northern hemisphere at least), there is a meteor shower. I, of course, like to think that it is all because of me, but I think it’s been happening for hundreds of years. Anyway, since I’ve been down under for the past two birthdays, it’s been awhile since I’ve been able to count some shooting stars. So, this morning, Sean, my friend Brad and I headed up to Council Crest, a high point in Portland, at 4 am, to see some shooting stars. We saw 10 or so, including a huge one that streaked across the sky and we were thinking might have hit earth. It was a bit chilly, but we warmed up by drinking some mimosas ![]()

Happy birthday, Court and Joe!
Thanks!
Although Court and I share the same birthday, we are not the same age.
Court is much older than me.
That’s what I thought, Joe.
Happy Birthday Court, and Joe. Sounds cool!
Still scared of me, Joe? I could come over and jump out of a cake, whilst doing a Marilyn, for a belated birthday ’scare’???
Always up for a celebration, Ging
I could do the Cake thing for you Court but I don’t think it would look as good!
Or it could look better depending!
Have a good Birthday Kids!
I will still buy you that drink if you ever have me down.

With a couple of stints working in South …
