Today is my favorite day of the year beyond a doubt br Even when I was a kid I liked it the best of all the other days in the year br It was the day I got to play with my new toys by myself or with just my friends br We could throw the baseball and my friend Perry could be Mickey Mantle br I was always Eddie Mathews or Hank Aaron because I hated pinstripes as a kid br I remember when my best friend got a go cart and I got a bike br Ten years later he got a Jaguar XKE and I got drafted into the army and given a gun br Some kids like me are always the lucky ones… br The day after Christmas...
