Today is my 53rd Birthday. Significant things to me are:
- I have now been married longer than I have been single. This is a very great thing and I am so happy to be blessed with a wife who I love more now than the day we got married.
- This is also Ronald Reagan’s birthday. I am honored to share the same month and day of the greatest American president in recent history.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

- Thank you to all who sent cards and greetings. I really appreciate it!
