Rich,

With credit to Lloyd Bentsen in the Bentsen-Quayle Vice-Presidential debates:

You knew Mickey Mantle.

Mickey Mantle was a friend of yours.

But Rich...

I ain't no Mickey Mantle!

In the 80's I had a press pass and used it to go to the stadium every chance I got. At this time "The Mick" was a commentator for SportsChannel NY. I spoke with him on a few occasions and also put together a music video of him in my spare time and gave it to him. I did a video montage of him swinging the bat and using scenes from The Natural. So you would see mick swinging and then see the ball he hit, hit a scoreboard. He loved the video and "The Scooter" liked it as well. He actually thanked me on the air!!!!!.....

Happy birthday Yoda!!!! Tracing the plane line and all those breakfasts at Cracker Barrel must be the secret of youth...cause you have the look, demeanor, and enthusiasm of a man much younger!

Hope you have a great 59th,

Keith

One thing's for sure, Keith, those Cracker Barrel breakfasts are showing. I'm working with Vickie to do something about that!

Don't give up on the Barrel!!!! The barrel's almost as good as the Bucket. You could hurt yourself with all that work out stuff. Plus all the chili slides of the hotdog when you're lifting weights.

Solution = buy bigger pants.

Happy birthday!!! and one to grow on!!!!
