Birthday, Not Quite Yet

If you want to be technical, I was born on August 8, 1946 at 7:19pm CST (Wisconsin).

As promised in the post dated July 29th, here is my story. I would be remiss in my duties as a blogger and author not to push my book at this time. Just send me an email with your information and for the mere price of $14.00 (including S&H) you can get an autographed copy with what ever you'd like me to say about you. Remember, I'm a fisherman and can lie with the best of them.

I went through a box in the closet and found these pictures that I didn't even remember having. 

So here we go through time and space from that evening in 1946 till today.

Maybe a year old?

In Wisconsin, maybe 4 or 5.

My date and girlfriend all through high school is the lovely Janice Lee Wilcoxon. You might be familiar with the Wilcoxon name. Henry (her uncle or some relative) was Henry Wilcoxon, cinema star in movies like Cecil B. Demille's Cleopatra where he played Marc Antony and other films.

So there you have it my friends, 67 and counting.
