Whoa! Two quite important Axiomoe events and I missed 'em. Sorry!

Dear Canada: Thank you for your good-natured responses (or none at all) to my 49th paralell jabs over the years.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CANADA! ROCK ON! (I'll ignore the Rush thing for the rest of the month, but just for you guys.) And admit it! You ARE us, only you're better at a lot of stuff and have way fewer crazy people per sq. mile. "Why" doesn't matter.

AND, AND, ADRIAN!

Major Congratulations on your recent marriage! It's aboot time! And to think of all the people who thought you were gay! Jeesh! At least now THAT can get put to rest.

Seriously, I wish you both many decades of joy together! HAPPY "0" Anniversary!
