Our whippet friends left this comment on my earlier musings which makes me very very happy because now I know what it means to be six. If it was good enough for Winnie the Pooh, it's good enough for me!!!
From the world's best writer, A. A. Milne:
When I was One, I had just begun.
When I was Two, I was nearly new.
When I was Three, I was hardly me.
When I was Four, I was not much more.
When I was Five, I was just alive.
But now I am Six, I'm as clever as clever,
So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.
Happy for ever and ever!
Thank you whippets, thank you Ms. Patience!!!

This is good, and true
But it leaves a little bit out

Now am I five or am I six? I certainly don't think I am clever as clever as you are.
Belated birthday greetings Jake.

That Ms Patience and those whippets really know how to cheer a guy up! And, hey. Pooh is one of the world's most underestimated of all philosophizers.
Goober love,
