Default John Nerud Turns 100 on Saturday

A legend in Florida; they have streets named after Tartan Farms down here. Happy Birthday!

If it wern't for ATR and Steve I would not know who he is.

Another reason to thank you Steve. What a pleasure to hear him and his views.

Nerud Turns 100 In Style With Birthday Bash

Quote:
Weiss was the first to speak after Nerud. “About 10 years ago, we had a very nice party at Aqueduct to celebrate John’s 90th birthday,” he said. “The last thing John said to everyone was, ‘Make sure you take good care of yourself; you’re all invited to my 100th.’ I don’t know what he’s going to say now.”

Great milestone - I wish him well, and have enjoyed the interviews on ATR in the past.

So now instead of "Centanni" (100 years), I will wish him "Centanni dieci" (110 years)!
