Happy Birthday Don

Got that wave of the day for ya, Bro. It happened to have been yesterday, but you would have been proud.

Happy Birthday Brother!

Hey-Hey, Captain Dootze - Happy Birthday! I got this photo of us in my office, so you're never far from my thoughts.



I remember some wild b-days back in the day, before Dootze became a model citizen. In our mid-20s Don's favorite vice was flaming shots, which flew past a bushy 'stache, then ended with a deafening roar that brought the bar to a standstill. Crazy man. I also remember a 30th with brother Randy. That story will remain out of the public domain to protect the innocent. Suffice to say at some point we were all firmly asked to leave the bar and not come back. Hang loose, Don - you are truly missed by all.
