February 17, 1978 is a memorable day for my mom but a day I always "celebrate"

Well, Biggie, I was 34 when you were born. My kids are 37 and 34 respectively! I had a ten year old and a seven year old when you were born! We had a few trains running in the basement back then, too! Not as many as now, but we had a few. A lot of it was Tyco and the old AHM stuff, but it was all I could afford back then. I must admit, however, that I have never 1.been in jail in Virginia, 2. been in Virginia, 3.had Connecticut plates on my car, or 4. been told that a peanut was crack. You have had an interesting life, to say the least. I have 1. run into a bridge railing under a railroad overpass, 2.been the weekend news anchor on a small television station (when I was your age!), 3. ran a beautiful HO steamer off into the "great beyond" terminating on the cement (Ouch!), and just tonight 4. spent my model railroading time restoring a sump pump to service instead of railroading. <br /> <br />You sound like an interesting young man. Maybe we can all meet you at this year's NMRA in Cincinnatti. <br /> <br />Cheers,
