Today is SanibelMan’s birthday. I want to throw him a party. Come on in and help me wish him HAPPY BIRTHDAY. ::hands out little hats and noise makers and confetti. Also has cans of silly string::
Sani I hope you have a great birthday and a great year.
::puts out trays of cupcakes, cookies, muffins…assorted coffees, soft drinks:: Oh yeah, and there is a bar over in the corner.
HEy man Happy Birthday. Here, I brought you a bottle of Tanqueray 10. What? Oh, sorry…You don’t like empty bottle for your birthday? I got a little carried away on my way over. I’ll run out and get you a new one. How old are ya now?
[Oldscratch wanders off into the corner and passes out]
Back off, everyone, Sani’s only 17, I think. And I can tell you from first hand experience that he is sweet and pure and that’s a GOOD thing, so don’t go corrupting him!
And as I mentioned over on FFF, your dinner at the Melting Pot is on me, sweetie.
Woo hoo Sani, happy birthday. I can barely remember when I was that young!!! Have fun and remember you have done one thing that will make most male dopers jealous, you’ve met Michi.
Come on, all you FL Dopers, don’t let Sani’s big day go without a good party! We are still meeting at the Melting Pot here in Tampa on the 21st. 7:30PM. Be there!!
Woohoo, thanks guys! I actually wasn’t too enthused about having a birthday on a Wednesday, since it’s a schoolday in a full schoolweek and surrounded by nothing but assignments and grades and crap… and somehow, I’ve managed to get a lot of bad school-based news today instead of, say, yesterday. (I went into detail on Fathom.) But I’m happy to see some people care, and even people here did - Lisa and Senida decorated my locker and Senida left a card and candy in there. The janitor’ll have a hell of a time vacuuming up the confetti, but oh well…
And thanks again for getting dinner, Michi! Look forward to seeing you there! I’ll dig up the old thread when I get home (I have it bookmarked there and I’m too lazy to get it here) and we’ll see who all is willing to come. That goes for all y’all - Nov. 21st, next Tuesday night, Melting Pot in Tampa at 7:30! E-mail me or post to the thread if you’re interested… so far it’s me, Michi, Bear and maybe LouisB, if we can find him.
Sani’s birthday?! What an excellent poster, human being and voice here on the boards.
::pounds head slowly into wall:: and he’s only 17!
Sorry, combined awe and misplaced lust. He’s so wise and sweet it took me forever to figure out he’s that young. Chronographically speaking, of course. (?)
Sani is the one who taught me the perils and rewards of online communication. The lines of print reveal the inner person, so temporary misconceptions fade to nothingness beside getting to know such a wise, funny, humane friend.
