Talking Good Grief! How could I have missed this?!

HAPPY HAPPY Belated Joe!
I hope you took advantage of this beautiful weather and went out for some good sea food! You work too hard, so more important is time for yourself. Happy happy day and know you (and Christine!) are loved by a lot of women!!
