Happy birthday, Bryan! Thanks for all you do here. I look forward to every ride on The Bus.

I somehow didn’t take either of those classes, but Dr. Foley and Dr. Plank were great influences on me. I decided to major in religion after getting “stuck” in Foley’s History of Christianity class first semester freshman year, and I spent countless hours in Dr. Plank’s classroom and office the next 3 years. I learned so much from him.

I saw on Facebook that Dr. Plank just recently retired. I sent him my thanks and congratulations, and he seems to be enjoying it.

Anyway, enjoy your day, and here’s to your 54th year!

P.S. I’ve always been a little intimidated by Pynchon, but I aim to give Vineland a try this winter.
