Tom's 70th Birthday Card



If you're like me, you like Tom.

As of Friday, October 28th, he's 70. It's true!

Let's take a moment to sing his praises. After all, it's not every day a Tomato turns seventy! Remember the first time you met him? Have a cherished memory? Colourful anecdote? Random trivia?

Tom! You made it! Three score and ten, man. The eternal return of the same asks not whether you'd like to come back to an improved life, to a better life, to life like the one you're living, but with all the wrinkles ironed out. The eternal return of the same asks whether you want to live the exact same life over again -- all the laughter, all the sorrow, all the joy, all the misery -- with nothing changed, not one thing, not one moment. Or really, how well do you love life?
Time to celebrate. Happy birthday!

Wow! 70! Respect!

Tom, I'm so glad I have had the honour to meet you and your insights while travelling the world. This encounter alone made my whole journeys worthwhile and special. Sitting down with you, a Schwarzbock, let's not forget the obligatory doobie ;), and having an inspirational chat, always made every day brighter. Personally I have learned from you alot and would like to thank you for it all right now.

I wish you a happy birthday, good health and the rest you can buy :)

Hope to see you soon!

Best wishes,

Val


PS., to this day I sauté my onions the way you told me and keep getting compliments for my delicious pasta salsas (if they knew it's the way you sauté the onions;))

PPS., You are the ultimate pesto king!

Happy Birthday Tom! I can't believe you're 70!! Definitely a young at heart 70 :) I'm very glad that we got a chance to work together at Douglas College all those years ago and that we've remained friends. I look forward to many more jazz evenings and picnics in the park with your deluxe smoked salmon! Big hugs and birthday kisses. Fiona xo

It's Happening' TomC, another arbitrary milestone on the broad river of life. Keep ranting & planting seeds of wisdom and insight, sailing in fresh breezes of new days

My good man, it is great to share this with you. Happy day for 70. You have a heart of gold and a temperament to cheer up a Brazilian leftist. Hope to see more of you soon and for better (weather at least) days ahead... :).
