If you know anything about me, you know that gratitude is one of my underlying mantras, perhaps no greater thing I am thankful for… Except maybe my children… Am I thankful these past 54 years for my bro, my brother,

He and I are quite different in some respects, but at the core, there’s an underlying common thread of decency, caring, and humor that rings, true,

So on this his day, I want to say I am grateful for him, and happy birthday happy birthday to you, Scott Lud !!!
