They just got another cash infusion to play with, the last one coming on Dec 9 if I remember right.

I do what my wife tells me. :laugh:

I would imagine we'll be going out to dinner tonight. We both enjoy this little Italian place not far from where we live. Great food, nice bar, quiet surroundings. Probably be a little busy tonight though as it is Friday.

Happy Birthday Coolhand !
Are you doing anything special for yourself ?

I do on my Birthday's Nowadays. :)
