Happy Birthday Sam!



Uh-Oh. It's the Big Four-Oh. The Beginning of The End. And all that other horsepucky. But I suppose Age 40 IS a milestone, as The Culcha seems to have made it so. That said, I’m sure Sam will agree with me that turning 40 is, in the end, much ado about nothing much… speaking strictly about the age thing, of course. His birthday is rather special to me and a lot of other folks, as well.



About the pics… The top pic is Sam and the Love of His Life… Alisa. I purloined this pic from Sam’s blog, so you’ll have to ask him when and where the photo was taken… but you’ll note the pic is most definitely seasonal. The second pic is Sam and four of his shipmates from the USS Monterey (CG 61), taken in 2004… somewhere on station in the Gulf. I got a kick out of the facial hair… definitely NOT “in regulation,” but allowed and encouraged, even, while deployed. The beards came off with the first port call, if I remember what I was told correctly. The Navy pic is a re-run, first posted (along with other Navy-type pics) back in 2006.



Happy Birthday Sam!
