I always enjoy your TKW celebrations, John, and this one is particularly amusing...its timing involves last week's immense waves along our part of the Pacific Ocean ~ 25 feet, with a newspaper photo showing two surfers the size of Pokey and Mr. Happy Man in the nearly-full front page shot! LOL! #11124033
