A happy birthday to you... *shoves cake and ice
cream through the modem to help improve it*... and
may this year bring you all the good things that
this previous year might have lacked.

And if it doesn't, console yourself with a new
tattoo and insist that the FOLLOWING year will
then have two years to make up for, and we'll all
beat hell out of it for you if it doesn't pay up.
 *grin*

Something tells me this'll be a good year for you,
though.  I'll raise a toast to your happiness!

Sheesh, though, you should have told me it was
your birthday -- I'd have put a little prezzie in
with the Pocky and strange seafood snacks I just
sent!  Something tells me that "Spicy Squid
Shreds" does not a birthday present make...

Anyway, here is Wolfwood shedding a tear or three.
 And I think I can speak for everyone else on this
board when I say we're glad YOU aren't crying for
the same reason.
