Thank you for stopping by my blog. There is no particular theme or topic and no posting schedule either. This is just something I do for my own occasional enjoyment/interest as well as for friends and family, but others are welcome (although I don't go out of my way to self-promote—almost the opposite, in fact).
I urge potential first-time commenters to take the time to read the guidelines on the commenting form. Regardless of whether you comment or not I hope you find something of interest or enjoyable here...
Happy 60th, Donald Fagen!
Happy birthday to Steely Dan's Donald Fagen, 60 years young today!
Here's a shot of Donald and musical partner in crime Walter Becker celebrating Steely style with all the dignity and grace befitting such a significant milestone. They broke out the hooters and the hats, a few balloons, a cake with 60 candles, and just what every major birthday bash needs—a dancing pig in overalls!...

So...I get home last night and I immediately blog my entry for the next day and then go to take a shower. I am doing so, when my mind finally shuts off the work day and in pops, "OMG, I have to say Happy Birthday to Donald before I got to bed tonight". I finish my shower, blog "Mr. Steely Dan Whatever" and then go to sleep. I wake up to your lovely post, doing the same thing and Ken Levine's blog having basically my post for today. Good thing I didn't go around reading everyone, before I posted. I might have gotten Blog envy. :-)
Seriously...I love the pig! Great job Dim Skip!
Thanks, Angel! My inspiration was kind of last minute, but I just thought I'd mention the occasion while keeping it whimsical. I figured the pig would clinch the "whimsy" plus add a that touch of country that I like.

I enjoyed your B-day wishes to Dr. Fagen as well. You can never go wrong with "Deacon Blues" from the "Be-Bop Daddy."
