A RaibleLand Holiday: My Birthday
I was born on this day 29 years ago, at 4:30 in the morning. I was born at the cabin, with only my dad (who is a Navy man, not a doctor) to assist. I came out with my umbilical cord wrapped around my neck and my whole head was blue. This had to be quite a surprise for my parents, doing the home birth and all. My dad, always good at thinking fast, grabbed his hunting knife from his belt and sliced that puppy off in a split second. And that's why I'm here today.
Ever since I worked at eDeploy.com, where they gave us our birthday's off, I've continued to take the day off. So today, there will be none of this blog checking, e-mail reading nonsense (save for an early morning peak) - but rather a whole bunch of goofing off, playing with my favorite ladies, and possibly some indulgence into a few of my favorite savory Colorado microbrews.

Just wanted to let you know that I have silently been reading your weblog for the past month or so. I've even gone back and read some of the older stuff. Thanks for continuing to share your experiences with us. Your blog entries about Hibernate have caused me to go check it out. I am now building some simple apps with Struts and Hibernate to come up to speed on how it works.
Thanks again for your blog and Happy Birthday! Enjoy the day with your family!
--> John
