A birthday card truly worthy of its author. (Frank, can’t believe you still have those shoes!) I vividly recall Michael Jordan’s 63 points. I also recall Tom Dempsey kicking that 63 yard FG for the lowly Saints on the final play at home against the Lions. There was much controversy because Tom had a disabled, shortened foot and used a “special” shoe for kicking. Those three men who wore now-retired 63 jerseys in the NFL were all great players I had the pleasure of watching play. And speaking of play, I hope your birthday is full of all “play” and no “work!”

To the People of the State of New York:
A FIFTH desideratum, illustrating the utility of a senate, is the want of a due sense of national character. Without a select and stable member of the government, the esteem of foreign powers will not only be forfeited by an unenlightened and variable policy, proceeding from the causes already mentioned, but the national councils will not possess that sensibility to the opinion of the world, which is perhaps not less necessary in order to merit, than it is to obtain, its respect and confidence.
