      Milestones, such as someone's 80th, should not go unrecognized. :-)

      Well, this is a thread in the OT section of the Warrior Forum. So, not so much the world, as maybe around 9 people.

      And Claude.

      But those are the 9 people who matter - so Happy Birthday, Kay.

        TEN people matter, Frank! Ten!

        I matter. and I have an impeccable record here.
        The FBI just took two days to do an exhaustive background check on me. And the four people they talked to...denied knowing me.

        Which to me, means my complete innocence and validation that I am this Forum's Greatest Stable Genius....not to mention the Certified Most Powerful Psychic here.

            A fat joke? A Fat Joke?!

            The FBI just did an exhaustive 2 day investigation about my alleged fatness. They interviewed four people I know, and all four people said they didn't remember me eating in front of them. Therefore...I am not fat, and the FBI just proved it.

            So there, Sir...I Said SO THERE!

      For everyone's information, I wasn't actually banned. After reporting around 5 SPAM post, it appears that one of the mods, in their ban-hammer frenzy, accidentally, banned me along with the spammer. I was informed that no one took blame for the mistake, or credit for the action if it was intentional, so that makes sense.

      You know what they say, "No good deed goes unpunished." :-)

      I spent my hiatus getting my inbox down from 10k emails to just under 8k. Seems like yesterday that there were only 2k. :-(

    Good one!


    I'm having a 2 day birthday this year - family forget yesterday so today I'm getting all sorts of attention...


    My son said "why didn't you say something yesterday?" - told him I like the guilt ...it's a mother thing.


    He is so organized - he had my birthday listed on his work calendar so he would get an alert....but yesterday was a federal holiday so he didn't work.... lot of entertainment value in watching a Type A personality miss a detail.... gotta love it

    Lately, I find myself wishing people a Happy Birthday at least 3 days early with an explanation that I'm doing so because I think of their birthday every day for a week before the actual day and then forget on the actual day.

    Remember that PSA that said, "The mind is a terrible thing to waste?" I've updated that, to, "A mind is a terrible thing to lose." :-(
