Hello, Dear Yusuf, I'm so thankful that your incredible fan Vivian inaugurated this ultra-special thread a bit early, as I don't believe I'll be within hailing distance of a computer tomorrow (July 21). I want to wish you a very "Happy Birthday", and combine this wish with a huge "Thank You" for all of the gifts of pure musical joy that you have blessed my life with. As a way of marking your special day, Yusuf, I went to the internet in order to find some 'famous birthday quotes' that I thought you might enjoy: "Whatever with the past has gone, the best is always yet to come." - Lucy Larcom "We are always the same age inside." - Gertrude Stein "Age is strictly a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." - Jack Benny "It takes a long time to grow young." - Pablo Picasso "If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older." - Abraham Sutzkever Here's one in which I find myself in the same age-range category as yourself (and as noted in the quote): "The years between fifty and seventy are the hardest. You are always being asked to do things, and yet you are not decrepit enough to turn them down." - T S Eliot ;D And, finally, the one that I believe suits you the very best, Yusuf: "The older the fiddler, the sweeter the tune." - English Proverb Bless you, Yusuf, and, once again, I wish you a most "Happy Birthday"! -Bud

Dearest Yusuf, My sincere wishes for the most wonderful of birthdays! I would also like to thank you for the gift you have given us by gracing the world stage once again. Your music has been a strong vibrant thread in the fabric of my life and you came back just in time to mend a couple of small holes eaten through by those "moths" we call years...thank you. Celebrate your 62nd* year in grand style, surrounded by those you love, and know the good wishes are coming your way from around the globe! Okay, now that I'm finished with the mushy stuff..... Hope tomorrow is great, Richina--your bayou lovin' fanatic fan from Louisiana (you know, the "smoochie" one!) ;D *(By the way, I can remember how young you are because I'm 10 years/3 days younger! Saturday I'll be 52! )

Happy Birthday, Yusuf!Moonshadow's Testimony of the Divine majicat.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Yusuf&action=display&thread=3463I hope that you are happy with my present to you. I have been waiting on you to indicate your direction. I am hoping and praying that I understand your choice. I couldn't keep it in any longer. As I promised, I testified as I told you that I would. Didn't you indicate that you chose to ride the wave to see where this would lead? If ever the Peace Train shall ever come, here is your opportunity to make its landing. I'm counting on God's promise. I want to see Rainbows in the Sky. Who in this world will be brave enough to really stand up for God? ...To testify to the evidence which proves that God works miracles. To prove that God knows the past, present and future! ... I'm standing up for the proof of God's existence. Will you? Now the question is ... Will you testify? To God be the Glory!

How special, to have a grandson born on your birthday! Welcome to the world, Muhammad, bless you and your family. I remember meeting Hasana when she was only 1 yr old. What a beautiful girl.

Wishing the dear man happiness, joy and peace on his birthday, and hope all goes well for him in the future. I think that when he was very young, we all loved him in those old Cat days, and what a charming and good-looking man he was, until changing his name, religion and faith, which really shocked everyone at the time. We all thought that when he did turn to religion that he'd never return to music again, until many years later, when his son brought the guitar back into the house, and left in on the couch and pick it up once again, and finally come back to music. We're all glad he's back again
