Hal Lindon, Jerry Reed, Spike Lee, Carl Reiner,Holly Hunter, William Hurt, Ozzie Nelson, B.F.Skinner and Pat Riley… to name a few.

Thanks. :slight_smile:

Cecil may not, but I will.

Happy Birthday to The Mermaid, Alcoinist and the rest of the folks!

Happy birthday to all of you - except that tight-ass Ozzie Nelson (props on the name, though - not too many people can pull off “Ozzie”).

And you citizens of Make-Believe, if you would like to know more about Mr. Rogers, here is a magical page that contains a magical link to the Kingdom of Make-Believe. Perhaps some of the citizens of the Kingdom will drop by. Oh, here are some already!

And speaking of big yellow birds, today is also the birthday of Big Bird, from another area of Make-Believe. No one knows exactly how old he is. As for Carroll Spinney, his spokesperson, no birth data seems so be available. Anyway, Oscar and Bird are here for the party. Speaking of birds, did you know Spike Lee originally wanted to do a bio of X the Owl? Check Snopes on this one…

Actually, Carroll Spinney was interviewed on A&E Sunday night, and he said that they currently think of Big Bird as a 6 year-old. This is based on the things he knows, and the way he reacts to various situations, and is quite important to the writers of the show. (He was considered to be about 4 1/2 when the series started over 30 years ago… obviously “big bird years” are a little different from “human years”)

Thanks to the three who showed up for our birthday thread. Mermaid, looks like we should have gotten nekkid to attract party-goers. (Has everybody checked The Mermaid’s new website? There have been some lovely additions since I last looked.)

Hey, happy birthday.

I didn’t want you to think nobody cared, anyway. :smiley:

Thanks, thedoorsrule, and all other new comers to the party. Morrison and I share the same two first names, by the way.

Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin…

Thanks to all who wished us a happy b-day.

I went out to dinner and had lobster and stuff. Drank about 5 beers and was feeling no pain. I feel great this morning though;I’m having a piece of birthday cake with my coffee—Yum Yum whipped cream frosting.

Yep 29 is gonna be great…again. :smiley:

It’s a day late, but happy birthday to you three anyways.

And if Cecil does show up, a certain doper (namely me) wants to be welcomed!
