HAPPY BIRTHDAY….If you were born this minute ? or if you just hopped over the border from Sonora ? you’ve put us semi-officially over the top. Congratulations! We can finally stop saying the population of the United States is “nearly 300 million.” As of one minute from now, it’s “over 300 million.”
