9:08 a.m., Feb. 26, 1961

February 26, 2024, at home

YEAH !!! I am officially 63 years old !!! I was born at 9:08 a.m. at Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip, Long Island, New York, on February 26, 1961. In the 1960s and 1970s (and later), the windows of the hospital were much lighter.

When I was a kid at school in the 1960s and 1970s, I would say "YEAH !!!" at exactly 9:08 a.m. on my birthday in whatever classroom I was in, invariably interrupting my teachers.

I share my birthday with my cousin Jackie, Victor Hugo, Tony Randall, William Frawley, Jackie Gleason, Johnny Cash, and Antoine "Fats" Domino. I am quite happy that my birthday is sandwiched between the birthdays of my dear friend Bryan, whom I have known for 63 years, and George Harrison, both on February 25, and my favorite pop singer Rainhard Fendrich (from Austria) on February 27.

(On a serious note, my father passed away at age 62.)
