Paul McCartney turned 64 on Sunday. Do we still need him? Will we still feed him?

Dave Ross, on this morning's Osgood Files, quipped:
Canada: a country so square, even the female impersonators are women.

My sister emailed me that now I am a great-uncle for the 10th time. Eldest nephew's wife popped out a 3.6 kilo boy this morning, somewhere in Israel. Two more nieces are due this summer. Sister's birthday is tomorrow.

Today in history: In 2004, the SpaceShipOne rocket plane punched through Earth's atmosphere, then glided to a landing in California's Mojave Desert in the first privately financed manned spaceflight. And nobody has heard anything from them ever since...

And a happy birthday to Britain's Prince William, who is incorrectly described by Today in History as Prince William of Wales. It's his pop who's Prince of Wales, Harry and William are princes without portfolio.

I went to Paul's concert last November. An Ice Hockey Rink full of screaming, singing, cheering Paul McCartney fans says he's not going to starve any time soon. :)

I just want to be in that good a shape at 64! He still Bounces!

I guess we still feed him.

I suspect I'll still be bouncing at 64. As long as pubs have bouncers.

I've got SpaceShipOne

SpaceShipOne is here with me in DC. Somebody named Smithsonian has it.

Well, thanks for keeping it safe for us. I guess what we have here is "One small step" syndrome.
