Have a great birthday today my friend. I hope it is a great one. Please assist me in wishing Polycarp a happy birthday. I know he generally post in GD, but I’m hoping that he will meander over here and see this. ---

The problem with Satan’s plan is that _I_ have to grow up first! 🙂 Thanks, everyone. It’s been interesting and wonderful to get to know so many terrific people, across the boards and in some cases in real life. ---

Best wishes for a very Happy Birthday. I’ll share with you a little wisdom I’ve gained over the years… When in doubt, go with '69. And just in case there’s a little confusion by certain pervs on the board, I’m talking about the year. Have a great day! ---

Happy Birthday, Polycarp! I haven’t had the honor of interacting with you, but I have always enjoyed your posts, and I have a great deal of respect for you. You are intelligent, witty and wise, and sometimes the ONLY voice of reason in the midst of confusion! [sub]of course, you have to understand that I usually agree with you, so my opinion may be ever-so-slightly suspect[/sub] Scotti ---
