Jordan Christopher Walburger turns 27 today. My oldest friend, our moms were pregnant at the same time. We went to school together from preschool through college and participated in all manner of chicanery in between. A few bullet points about Jordan:
- Before he hurt his knees he was practically indestructible. This was particularly apparent when our freshman year seminary teacher who happened to be a cop used all of his cop holds and Jordan and couldn't put him down.
- Jordan is the best free safety in Flag Football. He always had tons of picks. Heck of a wide receiver too. I miss the Big Eggs.
- Our short lived Boy Band "The Heart Breakers" took Lip Synching to a new level.
- When I took a sabbatical from dating my sophomore year of college, he found an elegant way of motivating me. It worked.
- There exists a tape of all of our High School memories. There is a chance that tape will someday come back to haunt me.
- When we were 14 we met Sting and the Macho Man. It was one of the great days of our lives.
- Jordan is directly responsible for my desire to get my picture taken with famous people.
- I was Marlo's home teacher so in a way I am responsible for his marriage.
- January 29th, 1995 was one of the greatest days of my life.
- Jordan rocked man Uggs long before I did.
- I brought him a T-Shirt from Norway to replace the one he wore for 10 years.
- He understands how awesome Kevin and Bean are.
Happy B-day to my best friend. He may have slowed down a bit but he still has a lot of fight left in him.

He wore that Norway shirt for closer to 15 years. I know I saw it early on in the Murphy Ranch days and he still rocked it after we had graduated from high school.
Wow, what a post, I believe it could be your best one ever. I appreciate the thoughtfulness in dedicating a post to me. We have had some crazy times. Thanks again man. Hope to see you soon.
