Well **matt** , congratulations! Now you can come across the border to VT and drink. Oh wait, that doesn’t work quite as well in that direction… Well, happy birthday anyway! Looking forward to meeting you later this month. ---

Happy birthday, matt. You were always one of my favourites around here. We have a handful of stuff in common - we’re both gay Unitarians who live in Quebec. PS, Not that it matters, but you share a birthday with Madonna’s beautiful little girl. She’s 15 years younger than you are. PPS, Happy Thanksgiving. ---

It’s pretty cool, having a birthday on the anniversery of the Battle of Hastings. One of my favorite things about the SDMB is how we’e watched so many of 1999’s teenagers grow into such fantastic adults. 'Grats, Matt. ---
