September 8th 2003

Under a perfect waxing September moon these special people gathered. Between food and dancing and drinking and laughing so many friends and family showered me with enough love to last the second half of a lifetime.

Thank you all. You are the people who sustain me. Who bring me through easy times and hard. Who give me reason to laugh and smile and love. You are the inspiration for a life of wonder.

 I love you. Thank you for coming. Most of us will be dead or nearly so by the time my 100th party comes around. I say this not to be morbid but to remind us that time's a wastin'. Live large, be happy.

Bring peace to the world,

Scott
