If by some real twisted, half-baked thought that you think they do, keep reading the above until it sinks in or get your parent to explain it.
Oh, and one last thing: in addition to what is listed above, add the RNC, Rush Limbaugh, the author's wife, or their dogs and/or cats.
Just so ya know.

I would like to say Happy Birthday to a few people who share this day with the composer Gustav Mahler.
First is my Dad. The Old Buffalo would have been 82 today. He passed away last August. I miss him terribly. He was always an anchor in my life. About a year before he died, we had a chance to spend some time together up in Canada when I was there for work. That's us cruising the Thousand Islands between New York and Ontario during that time.
The second Birthday is an infrequent commenter here at this blog. He goes by "Bloody Tom Morgan" although I have it on some authority that his name includes none of those. He lives on island out in the pacific somewhere.
Third is Sandy. Sandy is the significant other of my beer blog partner, Crackladen. They live in the city of great barbecue sauces and fantastic coffee. However, despite the song's insistence, there is no corner of 12th street and Vine
Happy Birthday to them all!

2. I reserve the right to banish you and I will do so if you can't be nice.
3. I reserve the right to edit, delete, post, mangle, fold, spindle, and/or mutilate any comment. I probably won't do it if you play nice.
4. I may post any email sent to me if I want to. Privacy will only be honored if requested and I think it needs to be kept private.
5. This is a hobby, but feel free to help defray the costs via the tip jar. :) If you don't, Obama will tax you out of it, so you may as well give it to me. I pay for the bandwidth and this blog. It ain't blogspot. Seriously, if you don't donate, don't feel obligated. I'll still like you.
6. Enjoy. Constructive criticism is alway welcome.
7. If you'd like to participate as an author here, Email me and we'll discuss it.

A short note to all on the occasion of my 3rd Blogiversary. (This will stay on top until the 16th, scroll down for new posts.)
Let me say that I appreciate all of my readers and especially everyone's comments. They add so much to my own rantings. I used to be somewhat lax in responding and I'm sure It didn't do much for repeat readers. I really am trying to be better at responding. It might take me more time then some, but I will try my best to get back to you. I don't mean to slight anyone.
My day job keeps me pretty busy and Mrs. VW would like to keep me busier. Add to all that the fact that when I sit down to write something, it takes a bit of time. I try to make it readable. I spend time checking my facts and trying to catch my typos and gaffes. (I don't always catch them but that's life.)
Again, thank you for reading, especially those who take the time to add to the discussion.
