    Happy birthday, John!  I hope you picked up a new knife or two!  (It just so happens that today is my wife's birthday as well -- we're having family time in front of the TV watching her favorite show "Dancing With The Stars" as I write this.)  Which means it's already October 13th for you...  So I hope it was a great day!
