Wayne – a frequent commenter and stirrer of the pot here at the G sides – turns 50 today. I think it’s 50. It’s hard to tell with the Italian mafia types. I mean, they could be 30 or 80 but they look 50. Especially when they dress in pinstripes…which Wayne does often.
But I must say that Wayne is one of my dearest friends. He’s the only guy that has ever reduced me to tears of laughter on the golf course to the point where I couldn’t finish the round. We were playing in Little Rock and he rips a 7 iron right into the side of the house directly behind the green. It wasn’t one of those loft shots that just lands on the house. It was a smoking line drive shot that was still rising when it made contact. We were pretty sure it went through the house and across the street.
I couldn’t swing a club the rest of the day.
Wayne introduced me into the wonderful, exciting world of electricity grids. Yeah…..
But I was going to link to Wayne’s blog but it’s dead. Maybe you can find him on Facebook and tell him happy birthday.

happy birthday to wayne!!!
Thanks, man! For the record though — I am NOT 50 — not even 40 yet!!!
That was one helluva 7 iron though wasn’t it!!!! I don’t seem to remember you being able to swing a club before that incident either
.
Yes, the blog is dead…I just gave up on it…seemed like just one more thing to maintain. maybe one of these days again…maybe not…wonder what will replace blogging?
G – I’ll never forget our first meeting at whole hog — you had me at ‘hello’ — oh wait, I mean, yeah, that was a life changing moment of discipleship for me, bro, yeah, and we really chowed down on some meat like real men who drive trucks and manly SUVs (which you don’t anymore, but that’s OK).
Seriously, thanks for the “blog card” though…waiting on that phone call!
