I was born in NYC on November 9, 1965.

Holy effin crap. You know it's a big event when Erik with a K comes back to holla out!
Happy Birthday C! Sorry I couldn't be there.
Hope you have a fantastic birthday! Your post made me miss home more than I even thought I did. I too looked out from the crown... which you can't even do anymore. Nothin stays the same, does it?
