    Congrats on 55 years! Now that the 12 days of Christmas Carnage has been retired - this is my favorite annual thread. You are definitely winning at life.

    Congratulations Ralph!

    Jan 23rd - 43 years.

    Also, coming up on a milestone here on PSA - 20 yrs on the 24th.

    I read everyday what's posted but don't post like I used to; and said before - I miss a whole bunch of guys that have left.

    Congrats Ralph! Just curious, where did you get married. Could be quite cold on January 16!

    We got married at Columbus, Ohio City Hall by Judge Tom Moody who went on to be Mayor. I was a laborer for a mason. We got our license and just waited for a day too cold to work. Much like today.

    Congrats as well on 55, that is not an easy feat!

    I was born in Columbus!

    Congratulations Ralph. I recall I was in love with a lady named Elaine Rhodes in 1968. (back in RI)
    She ended up marring someone else.
    Strangely enough, I've been in the Columbus, Ohio City Hall, about 45 or so years ago (with a repetitive Jim Klekner) to pick up some bid documents on a Water Treatment plant IIRC (Parsons?), nice clean city from what I can recall.
    A huge Cincinatti Bengals and Reds fan from Wadsworth. lolol
    Anyhow Congrats Ralph and many more happy and healthy ones.
