1. Let me be the first and not the last to raise “4 fingers” with both hands in honor of the birthing of Dr. Biggles!
   Where would we be without his images, writing, knowledge, wit and basic understanding of life?!!

4. Happy Birthday, Mr. President! May you enjoy a full day of porky, bacony, applewood-smoky flavoured aroma laden air, wherever you may be! A bit early here and the bar isn’t open yet, but I am raising my glass of imaginary Pinot Noir in your Honour! “Ham it up! It’s Your Day!” %)

6. Happy birthday, Bigs (and Roger Federer, too)! I had lots of sangria while watching the opening ceremonies, but I promise to drink plenty of vodka for you later when I go to the Russian restaurant for dinner. Meantime I send you this link to a picture of the zampone we had for New Year’s Eve in Rome (since I never got around to posting the details of the 10-day Italian feast):
