HAPPY BIRTHDAY
All these years and you still share your birthday with Christmas, what a bummer! Have you ever thought of changing your birth date. It should be a law, for every son or daughter born within three days of Christmas, parents are required to look at the calender and pick a summer day where their child would get the attention. Once your have passed the half century mark it might be better to have a date three days after Christmas(less people notice, who cares anyway). Heck, make the law so your birthday reverts back to its original date on your big 50.

After the gift exchange at our Christmas celebration Vicki thought it might be nice to have a game of Gavett Trivia. She left me in charge of coming up with the questions because she claims she has blocked out the first twenty years of her life. She claims she had an overload of responsibility in aiding and abetting the rearing of her siblings. I didn't quite understand what she meant but she sounded serious so I didn't question her. Getting back to the trivia game; an example of a question and the rules. There will be two main teams divided into two person teams, I will explain the teams at the house, every question will have three clues. Points will be awarded based on how long it takes you to answer the question; 3 points after the first clue, 2 points after the second, 1 point after the third. An example of a question: 1. Early spring was as good a time as any. 2. The earliest blossoms from the railroad tracks were his way of saying "I love you." 3. May 1 st. 1949 was the date it all began. That's an easy set of clues, they do get tougher. Since my clues will tend to be on the earlier side of life I'm welcoming submitted clues pertaining to and from the third generation. Of course, when your clues are given we ask that you refrain from answering them. Please e-mail me with your clues or questions by the end of the evening on Thursday. My e-mail address is bagels97@aol.com. If I get enough questions from the third generation the second generation (mother added) may challenge you.
