Happy 90th JoePa!

Wishing a dead person happy birthday is messed up. Move on.

Yeah, screw that whole Washington's birthday, Lincoln's birthday, MLK birthday holiday deal for you, huh?

It's a way of honoring someone important to us. No need for you to comment if you disagree - just disagree to yourself.
Every year on my Mother's and Dad's birthdays, both long deceased, I silently say happy birthday to them. So, I am proudly messed up.

Excellent reply.

My guess is that Corabi94 wanted to elicit a response and can't be that soulless. Can he (or she)?
 
Joe's Birthday is one of the few I remember outside of my own family. It is a time to remember a good and honorable man. The uninformed and the agenda drive may attack his legacy but it will stand the test of time. Rest in Peace Joe.

Going thru some old stuff and moved some photos....didn't really want to look at them, difficult time of year for memories...anyway, a picture falls on the floor and I pick it up and it is 4/20/95 shot of Joe speaking to my sons after a spring scrimmage at Beaver Stadium. Pretty strange.
 
The Surma boys are uncomfortable today. They are probably uncomfortable every day. They can't even hold public funerals in that family anymore.

Those two guys think they are under the radar, but they aren't.

Yes, those are postal holidays. Congrats and move on already. We are playing in the Rose Bowl after winning the Big 10.
