Jake turns 29 today! Again!

Share a Jake story:

First time I met Jake in person was at Spring Fever. Todd Hart drags him over to me and says, "John, THIS is JAKE KOHL!" I get a big smile on my face and get ready to shake the hand of a prolific Catsailor presence in whom I share a certain sense or irony. We're about to start what I anticipate will be a really good conversation that I've been looking forward to for some time. Right then, this kinda lanky kid walks up.

"Hi, my name is Wouter."

Mayhem. Jake and I had to wait a bit to start talking over the noise.

Many happy returns, buddy.
