Happy Birthday to my Ricky.
The 31st of July was my brother Ricks Birthday. I usually post my "tribute" on the day of the birthday, but I have been thinking about this one for an extra long time. My brother Rick is in himself an exceptional person. He is a very hard worker and never accused of being lazy. He can build anything with just an idea, hammer and a box of nails. He has a patient personality, always gives people a second, third and fourth chance, but once he is pissed, look out!!! You can invite him anywhere and he will make a friend. He is eternally committed to his family. Now the rest of it. He is one of the only people I would go to in a real pinch. he has a level head and can give advice without is sounding "preachy". Growing up he and my dad had their tiffs and would butt heads. It came to pass that they were so much alike that it took adulthood to bond them as friends. His blue eyes and the way he holds his cigarette are so Pop that it can make me cry looking at him sometime...
