The Prof celebrates another year on the right side of the Earth's surface. Jesu Kristo but the stories he could tell about his three-score-and-five! It must amuse him no end when he hears eh second generation kids philosphise on life and life's challenges, believing that there's an app for everything and that contracts are sacrosanct. he has seen it all, or as much of it as a man of his experience and wisdom can see. He has been to places where they serve escargot and frogs' legs without batting an eyelid. He has seen snakes roasted over an open fire. And he has seen death stalk those nearest and dearest to him. In all this it is ineluctable that he is without a doubt the One Man who has made a difference in our lives. And, God-willing, he will continue to do so for another three-score-and-five. Happy Birthday, Prof. Do you think its time you taught me how to play that snazzy guitar?
