Happy birthday, although I canā€™t forgive you for losing your internet access at this juncture in the game. Iā€™m going to have to call you out in the Pit for that. ---

Wow, guys, I donā€™t know what to say. How often does that happen? šŸ˜‰ Iā€™ll have to let my buddy Aristotle do the talking for me. > [@](#): > > For friendship is a virtue, or involves virtue; and also it is one of the most indispensable requirements of life. For no one would choose to live without friends, but possessing all other good thingsā€¦ > > And friendship is not only indispensable as a means, it is also noble in itself. We praise those who love their friends, and it is counted a noble thing to have many friends; and some people think that a true friend must be a good man. Well, since I want to be noble and good, I sā€™pose I gotta love my friends. šŸ˜ƒ Thank you all. Very, very much. **Pucette** Iā€™m having a really lousy dayā€¦but as long as you stay in my life, Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll have a great year. **Simetra** Merci mille fois! **Nym** I am a big boy. Itā€™s an awesome responsibility. And Chicago doesnā€™t sound like such a bad idea, I have to admit. Iā€™ll definitely have to think about it. šŸ˜‰ **dpr** Itā€™s pronounced MAY-glin. The -ae- is long. The g is hard. Just the way I like it. šŸ˜‰ And donā€™t eat all the cake. Since Iā€™m a big boy now, I have to make sure everyone shares. **Cajun Man** Thanks as always for your kind words. Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll see you soon. **Falcon** Thank ye! Still coming to the tournament in May? **LNO** Call me out and youā€™ll be crapping out of a hole in your lower back. šŸ˜ƒ Itā€™s been a lousy week, and my loss of internet and the handsprings I had to do to get it back up again have not been pleasant. Iā€™ll try to give the game a shot of adrenalin tomorrow. **vix** Thanks! And Iā€™ll have everyone know that just 'coz you called me kiddo doesnā€™t mean that you are all that older than me. šŸ˜‰ **ladybug** Heheā€¦My day sucks. But that doesnā€™t necessarily mean that your good will is wasted on me. šŸ™‚ **Silo** I first thought you wrote ā€œyouā€™re the man _for_ a day.ā€ I cracked upā€¦was about to smack youā€¦and then accurately read what you wrote. Not as clever, but much, much nicer. Take it easy. Iā€™m sure youā€™ll be in town soon. MR ---

Not-quite-belated Happy Birthday, **Maeglin**. Hope you got the opportunity to run through some irritating cad with your sword today, or did something equally fun. I see you finally got your pit thread, so at least some good has come out of it. Enjoy! (And many moooooorrrrreeee . ā€¦ .) Bill ---
