Birthday Thanks

A special thanks again to those who called or send cards/packages or e-mails for my birthday. It means a lot to me to have you all remember and take time out to do so. In Ukraine, the tradition is that on your birthday you treat others to dinner, drinks, etc. So it was especially nice to celebrate this day with other Americans (who don't expect such things).

Again, it's always great to hear from people and to know that I am in your thoughts as all of you are in mine.

ps: I did not drink too much champagne, despite what it may have sounded like.
