To quote gman: "This little thing that we share called the hobby sometimes allows you the opportunity to meet some good people when we check our egos at the door."
Truer words were never spoken and there are no finer examples than the two to whom I've said "Happy Birthday" the past couple of days.
gator 42 (I think it's high time you adjust that number upwards - significantly), you're one of the first I met in this crazy world of ours and you've epitomized the definition of friendship ever since. Thanks for everything - the hospitality on fight nights, the fine cuisine for Sunday football at "TG's Sports Bar & George Foreman Grill," and so much more - I couldn't possibly attempt to list all.
Most of all, thank you for allowing me to introduce myself as you so often. It's been my saving grace.
Happy Birthday, gator50!
