I would have posted this when I got home last night, but got bombarded by IMs. Also had to delete 68 of the 70 emails I recieived when my email was being inaccessible and a temperamental beast. Anyways… **HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DANTHEMAN!!!** Approximate Phonetic Chinese Version of “Happy Birthday”: (thanks, Nathan!) “Guung juuk nay fook sow yuen teen tsai, hing hong nay sun sun fie lok. Leen leen doe yao gum yut, suuy doe yao gum jzew, guung hay nay! Guung hay nay!!!” Approximate English Translation of Above: “Congrats on this good day of fortune, where we can all gather together. Wishing you a very happy birthday. Every year, this wondrous day arrives; Always, this wondrous time comes. Congratulations! Congratulations!” Hope you have a great birthday, and a terrific year to come! 🙂 It’s been a blast getting to know you! 🆒 F\_X ---

Great googly-moogly! I get my _own_ thread? Pour quoi? Oh, it doesn’t matter. Thanks, **Necromancer** , **Ruby** , **Ice Wolf** , and **Eisel**! **Ruby** , how do you know I’m not concrete? I’m KIDDING!!! PUT THAT WHATEVER IT IS DOWN! (What would get rid of concrete? A jackhammer, of course.) Nice jiggling there, **Eilsel**. 😉 **Flami** , thank you for the thread and the multilingual greetings! I’d respond in kind, but I’m monolingual. I should learn some Chinese, don’t you think? I’ll put it on my to-do list, right after “fly to moon.” I’ve spent a lot of today on the road, as me and the Dog of Steel are currently in NJ for the weekend. He sends his best. ---
