I love birthdays, or as my friend/boss Mitch wrote on my Facebook page, “Happy anniversary of your birth.” It’s not just my birthday I love, I love yours and everyone’s anniversaries of birth because they celebrate life and another day to live it.
I marked the 50th anniversary of my birth on June 20, 2011, and the celebration was the best one I have had in a half century. My wife, who I love more…


I think many a Meeker student learned to type the “Mrs. Starbuck way”. We were so lucky to have such a wonderful teacher!!
Not just Mrs. Starbuck but also Mr. Starbuck. They left an impression and changes to many a youngman and younglady in high school. Perhaps our teachers do affect us not just for the year in their class but for always. Happy belated birthday to you, our country and to Meeker.
