Wow! Clint Eastwood turned 96 today!

It is hard to believe that he has reached this milestone. Then again, it is also hard to believe that I am 24 years behind him in age! 

Well, growing old is not so bad when one considers the alternative, eh?

I was forunate enough to meet him and get his autograph at the Reagan-Bush Victory Party at the Century Plaza Hotel. I had him sign my ticket to the private reception (below).

Happy Birthday, Clint!
