I find it interesting in that whether it's an oversight or the actual
D.O.B. thus far, the 3 posters were 69' babies!

Trying to think of what I was swimmin' around to in the womb
back in early 59'...Somethin' tells me that my name sake came into play there somehow... Middle name that is... ;D

Great post!...I'll have to think about this one.

Thanks
Kim
