    Bobby Orr is 60?

    Holy sheep Martha, it blew me away to find out that Bobby Orr turned 60 today! WOW, it seems like just a few years ago (I guess its a few decades) he was the best in the NHL.....

    Even worse, Gordie Howe turns 80 in the next week or so. And if it makes you feel any better Bob, Orr's knee is barely older than yours.

    If they keep replacing parts of you then your average might actually be middle aged.

    Yeah, and the most dangerous when combined with the first sign. If you're experiencing memory loss, how do you know when the 4 hours are up and you need to call a doctor?

    Bobby likes Mike's & Ike's Candy and steelhead fishing. I found out about the candy the night he sat in my PA Announcers booth at a JR B game here in St Thomas. He was there to watch a young defenceman that he wanted to represent as his agent.

    My daughter had a box of Mike's & Ike's and Bobby asked her if he could have some because he loved those candies!

    We talked about steelhead fishing and some of the big fish we had both caught over the years.

    Some people say they found him rude when they met him, I thought he was a great guy.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBBY

    PS Yes Bob, you are old and so am I Remember boys, with age comes wisdom
