August 31 is the birthday of my friend Aggie, who turns...some wonderful age. I know, but I'm not telling in case she doesn't want it broadcast. She's the mom of four, including twins, and I hope she gets treated royally today. And everyday. I've known her for about 11 or 12 years, and she is part of the Thursday Night Girls. She was one of 16 kids in her family, which is pretty darn amazing. Ask her about the famous Green Dresses! Happy Birthday Aggie!
It's also Van Morrison's birthday. He's turning 63 (he's way older than Aggie). People generally know of him from "Brown Eyed Girl" and "Moondance", and those are good, but the music I love is not often played on the radio. But that's OK because I have a fairly extensive Van collection, including some wonderful live stuff. I finally saw him live this past December on my birthday. It was the best birthday present ever! Happy Birthday Van!

Don't forget it is also Richard Gere's birthday of "Pretty Woman" fame.
I also happen to like Van Morrison. It is my sister MaryAnn's favorite and she got me hooked.
Thanks for the birthday wishes and no I didn't wear a green dress today.
Happy Birthday, Aggie, and many, many more! May they all be rich and joyful!
