Oh that's right, I almost forgot! It's bathday! Normally I take a bath once a month whether I need it or not but the bathday is a special occasion.

The 2012 in my moniker is nothing mystical or cryptic. I changed my e-mail address years ago, too much spam on the one I had, so I went with cmac. Nope, that one was taken. So I tried cmac 1 through 12, all taken. I have a friend with 2012 in her e-mail address, mostly tongue in cheek, so I thought, OK all you impostor cmacs, anyone taken cmac2012? They hadn't.

Then later I did some searching, and I was unique in the world with those 8 characters. Not bad, I'm thinking. But now I find others are using the moniker. Oh cruel world.

Thanks. It was a good one. My mother and 3 sisters seized on it as an opportunity to visit SF with me as tour guide. First time we've all been together here.

Now I've got to get busy on the ageless wonder routine so I can have people beating a path to my door with piles of money in hand, enjoining me to please share my secrets with them.

Or at least a few ladies making a similar pilgrimage.

Happy birthday Carl!!

I have always admired and respected you and enjoyed our all too rare visits now and then, in San Francisco.

Here we are on one of the early ones, taken around the timewhen we first met, and became friends, right here through Mercedes Shop, and my album says this was taken 09-12-2007, it is on the top of SF's Russian Hill as you may remember.

The arrogant 2140 Taylor Street condominia (seen behind us) remind me of a huge pile of safe deposit boxes stacked up, and ruining one of SF's best views.

Hey Pops, I see the resemblance.

Cmac is my Father. He left me when I was just a itty bitty little kid because I was so UGLY he couldn't stand to look at me.
