April 27, 2012 Happy Birthday Kim. Wow, I remember 36 years ago was a nice day. I also remember your Father celebrated REALLY REALLY hard with some of his friends. Good thing you were born early morning otherwise I probably wouldn't have seen him on the 27th. A story relating to the day you were born. Everybody knows you were all born at Regina General Hospital. At the time, the nurses were on strike. Everyone of our Regina friends remembers your entry into the world. That night Merv, Dan, Dick & Walter helped your Dad celebrate. You'd think he was the one who gave birth. They started at our place (at the time, we lived on Westgate Avenue) and went to each of the guys places. That, however, wasn't enough. These four clowns ended up at some strangers place who gave them more beer. (Oh yeah, did I mention at some point they met this guy because they accidentally drove up on the corner of his lawn.) Like they needed MORE beer. Can you imagine that happening these days. I'm afraid the outcome would have been way different. To end the evening they went back to Westgate where the landlady threatened to evict us. Mrs. Brandick already wasn't thrilled she was going to have to contend with a crying baby in her house. Lucky for you Kim she caved and we lived there for about one year.
