Hi Debi,
I really enjoyed this poem. I don't know Jake well, or didn't before the poem, but the lighthearted way you told his story, even though ripe with disaster, we so engaging it drew me in and helped me to know him better.
Happy Birthday, Jake,
Rhonda

Hi Sweetie, and thank you for that lovely six stars for Jake's poem. I hope he is looking at these reviews and seeing what he could share in.
Thanks for all the kind comments too. Love., Debi

Hmm. Let me guess, Jake is a Frank Zappa fan? I liked the Tower of Power songs better. Lol. I know you covered many of Jake's interesting biographical points before. Thanks for keeping up this birthday tradition!

Yes, I did.cover some of this a year ago but he asked me for another poem. I am afraid I didn't add some of the info that he wanted me to.
Thanks Helen, love ya. Debi

You birthday poems always tell us so much about our fellow FanStorians, all the interesting little tidbits of which we may not have been aware. Jake has lived (thankfully) a very interesting and full life and I wish him the very best on his special day. Thanks, Debi, for another great poem!

Another well composed birthday tribute, the media additions are excellent as always. "Frank Zappa" Is one of my favorites from back in the day "Janis Joplin" is sitting at the top. Well done as always Debi.

Hi you guys, I love Janis Joplin too. I loved Mercedes Bend, but I am afraid to admit that I used to party and when the song Piece of my Heart would come on, I would get up on the table and lip sync to it. And of course you won't tell anyone, right?? LOL
Of course I haven't done that since I found Jesus, but I do have to admit it was a fun time.
I thank you so very much for all the kind comments for Jake and his poem. I appreciate it very much. I know Jake will as well. Thanks again, my dear friend. Love,' Debi

I will not tell, promise.

LOL, I was just teasing as my life is an open book. Love that you loved Janis too.
Comment from Carol Clark2
This is an interesting birthday poem for Jake, with many good facts about his life. Wow, a foreign diplomat! No wonder he's visited so many countries. It sounds like he's fortunate to still be with us. That's a few too many brushes with death. Thanks for sharing. Carol

Yes, Roy, it is Jake Cosmos and you can always tell as I put the pen name in the description box next to the title.
I have thought about doing that too on his blog as he asks me all the time and I just haven't found the time to do it yet. But I am so glad that you do.
I love your comment about loving my poem for him. Everyone is loving it so I hope Jake knows that and is following to see how much people love the poem.

Comment from GWHARGIS
I found it very interesting ad a bit aggravating that the nurse wouldn't change the birthday date when she was the one who screwed up. He sounds like a colorful and well traveled man. I'm going to look him up. Gretchen

Hi Gretchen, actually how it went, Gretchen is that he was born at 4AM on the 30th and the nurse was on the night shift and had already started to fill in the details before he was actually born and so it got recorded as the 29th.

Comment from Sally Law
What a beautiful poem you've put together for Jake. I could have bet my FanSrory dollars we were the same age: 69. Oh well, my remaining sight blurrs something terrible. Wow, 77 is quite a milestone for our world traveler.
Happy Birthday, Jake! I hope you have a great coffee because I know you'll enjoy that as much as cake!
Blessings across the globe from my humble abode. :))
Love,

No, Sally, you were right. Somehow his notes came across wrong and it appeared he was 77 according to them. But he cleared that up for me. Thanks so much for the review and comments. So appreciated.

Oh, okay. So, 69 is cool again! I'm rockin' it. Thanks for the heads up!

Long as I've been around here it seems almost strange to say that I don't know if I know Jake. But I'll be on the lookout for him now. Happy Birthday, Jake, and many more!
