Living on the Other Side

[Harold Henderson]

Now, Thomas "Buddy" Akins knows what it's like having officially lived a whole year on the other side of the half-century mark.

COngratulation, Buddy, for having survived longer than all the fish you have caught!

Hope your birthday has been a great family event spent with those you love and, maybe, a little indulgence in things you love like flying.

In fact, I just blew by Hunstville (assuming you are still there) on I-65 today. Had I realized it was your birthday, I would have at least stopped and called to wish you the best.
