I have my sources and I happen to know that today is the birthday of our own **Uncle Rue** , Story Guy. Offer him a smooch or a manly thump on the back! Or a wedgie. Whatever…

Me first!

\*SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCH!

Urm…I don’t think you want my kisses. I’m sick. So, here’s another present. _reaching in **Rue’s** pants, searching for his underoos_ Hrm…looks like I can’t give you a wedgie…what else should I give you?

[sub]Oh, yeah, and Happy Birthday, **Rue**![/sub]

I was going to start this thread earlier, but it was just a hunch based on a hint **Rue** gave earlier. Glad to see **FCM** ’s got better sources than I do.  
**Happy Birthday, Rue!**

No kisses, just this lovely gift. Go ahead, open it!

Happy Birthday Rue!  
Uh, you weren’t planning to throw a party, where you? Cause, you know, I’m still recovering from the last one!  
Anyway, hope you have a great day, lots of goodies, and the biggest and best cake in town!

(clears throat)

The Birthday song in Mexico:

Estas son las mañanitas que cantaba el rey David  
Hoy por ser día de tu santo te las cantamos aquí.  
Despierta mi bien despierta  
Mira que ya amaneció  
Ya los pajaritos cantan  
La luna ya se metió.

¡Qué linda está la mañana hoy que vengo a saludarte  
Venimos todos con gusto y placer a felicitarte!  
El día en que tú naciste, nacieron todas las flores  
En la pila del bautizmo cantaron los ruiseñores.  
Ya viene amaneciendo ya la luz que ya Dios dió.  
Levantarse de la mañana, mira que ya amaneció.

De las estrellas del cielo tengo que bajarte dos,  
Una para saludarte, otra para decirte adiós.  
Volaron cuatro palomas por toditas las ciudades  
hoy por ser día de tu santo te deseamos felicidades.  
Con rácimos de flores hoy te vengo a saludar.  
Y hoy por ser día de tu santo te venimos a cantar.

Happy Birfday to you!

Oh frabjous day! (Or DeDay, as the case may be–thanks, **thinksnow**.) Came to this thread kind of late, but hey, it’s the Sunday after Thanksgiving; I’ve been lying around mostly comatose all day. Anyhoo, hope it was happy. Or still is happy. Or something. Yeah. Well, you know what I mean.

[celestina walks up to Rue, pulls his head down so she can reach it, and plants a kiss in the middle of his forehead.]

I’m not gonna kiss you Rue. I haven’t brushed my teeth yet, so you’re prolly happy about that. Sigge, [Evil Dog From Hell (Without Teeth)](http://ludvig.lithvall.nu/bilder/d11/j/640x480/2001_1026_184631aa.jpg), would probably like to give you a birthday kiss, but he hasn’t brushed his teeth (the few he’s got) either. That’s not so strange, since he’s a dog and all…

Have a good one!
