I never had a birthday party. I don't think anybody in my family had a birthday party. When I was about 15, my parents gave me a brownie hot-cut camera with a flash bulb. I still have it. It's in the bedroom. I did go next door when I was about 8 or 9 years old to a birthday party. A boy over there was having a birthday and I still remember the cake. It kind of looked like a drum. It was a round cake with candy sticks on the side. It kind of made it look like a drum. That's amazing for 75 years ago. Let's see. I said David Letterman was on my birthday and his band leader, Doc Severson, I think he was born in Arlington, Oregon, which is a little east of the Dalles of New York, if you know the Oregon at all. We literally stopped there at the rest stop and there's a monument there talking about Doc Severson. That's kind of cool. There was a girl in high school. She was born in England, I guess. Janetta Dunn was her name. Her birthday was April 12th. When I told her that was my birthday, I don't think she ever believed me. She thought I was just playing with her. Anyway, I hope everybody that's having a birthday has a great one. KV-7, you're back to that.
