When I turned 25 , I remember being very impressed with the whole ‘quarter of a century thing. It took forever to reach that age.

It has taken no time at all to reach today, however. We lost Patrick, I blinked, and then I woke up today, having marked our missing him with fifty or so glasses of chocolate milk. You’ve been my drinking buddy since 2001 or so, and I invite you to hoist another today, as I will invite you as long as I have a connection to the internet and a keyboard.
