Hmmm… Ollie… I thought to myself what is your secret… then I thought again. What I learned from you a while back… It went,

hm-hm-hm Eating greens is a special treat. It makes long ears and great big feet. But it sure is awful stuff to eat… I know there’s magic in that one somewhere.

I thought that I’d watch FRANK AND OLLIE this evening. Just my way of celebrating with you all your fantastic gifts given us over the years.
Bless Penny and Rufus, Thumper, Uncle Waldo, Your sweet Marie E. So many…
Cheers Ollie… and Happy Birthday!
