Today is Michael's birthday, and the birthday of his older brother, Paul.


I'd say really nice things about Mike here, as his father, but how do you top getting married and spending a week or so in Aruba? Anything I'd say now would be superfluous, but here's an attempt:

I'm proud of all my children, of course, and especially proud of Michael because he went from being a miserable — absolutely miserable — law student to a writer successful by any measure. The fact that both amazes me and makes me proud is that CardChronicle is something that sprang from Mike's mind — it was his creation alone, and the fact that it's become such a success is a testimony to both his ability and his vision.

So, happy birthday, sport. Thirty isn't all that bad, if memory serves me correctly, though as an old man, you never know. Both your Mom and I hope the day is as terrific as the last eight days have been.
