It's great that Uncle Joe's age now equals his golf score. He's a worthy opponent even if he does
spend 2 minutes setting up that perfect shot on the green and then use the 1 iron. But what I
always liked best about Uncle Joe is how he likes to have fun. He has spent a lot of money over the years on video-games, X-rated movies, internet porn, gambling, tobacco, alcohol and loose women. Sadly, he wasted the rest of his money. But when he wasn't reading the Bible or sitting in church Uncle Joe created some great memories for his nephews and I'm sure for his own kids and all those who know him. Much like his bookie and every house of ill repute in Wake County, we are much richer to have known him. Although I haven't met Sue in person, she seems to be one of the best things to happen in his life. Maybe one day they'll stand before a judge as he pronounces them drunk and disorderly. As you blow out that birthday torch you do it with the
thoughts of many friends and relatives. I would say you're first 70 years were a success.
Happy Birthday.

I wish my life had been half as exciting as your humorous description nephew. (My nephew's golf reference is about an old Nintendo video golf game, where instead of selecting a putter when I was on the green, I selected a driver by mistake and hit the ball 220 years off the green.) You were correct about Sue being a wonderful addition to my life. Have a great New Year 2012. Uncle Joe
