Our catch phrase is on its way.

Dear Fellow Earthlings,

I was born at Christian Welfare Hospital in East St. Louis, Illinois (in the United States of America) on January 10, 1948. The doctor who delivered me was Dr. Joe Belleville. I was the firstborn for John and Ann Walker of Caseyville, Illinois. The weather on the day I was born was cold and snowy. I got chilled during the car ride to my home 3 days later. But my paternal grandmother Lorene put me next to a wood stove and got me warmed up. The house was packed with people: Grandma and Grandpa, 5 children besides my father, an aunt and her husband and their baby son – plus my mother, and now me! On top of that, the house had no toilet, so everyone had to use an outhouse. This of course was of little direct concern to me since I was an infant. In all this squalor I was walking by late October of 1948. By December I could talk a bit too.
