Henry Fonda and I share a birthday.
I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
I'll bet that gave him some real comfort during his life, Gus.
I see that Swimpy and Charles Bukowski share birthdays.
Ironic, since I've always been reminded of Bukowski's writing when I read Swimpy's stuff.

Gus, I have now solved the mystery that has been dogging A2K members for the past 43 years.
Henry Fonda (1905), was born on exactly the same day and year as H.E.Bates (novelist).
You have been revealed!
It also explains why, when I read your posts, I immediately think "Gus Ratzenhofer - Master Bates".
That is pretty damn weak, Lord, and I am disappointed in you.
