I don’t know. I may have done that already. I’ll have to look. I guess I’ll have to live with the STFU he sent over a crackly radio through @Ed_Zotti . (It’s in this thread somewhere) ---

Perhaps Ceec personally knows Jezebel and has known her a long time. ---

The lack of cake icon gives you away. Try again on your birthday (when is it ?) And don’t try to cheat be setting your birthday date to today - HE will know !! ---

I thought my birthday was in there. It’s Nov. 6. @Cecil_Adams has missed(didn’t care 😊) it every year I’ve been here. Hmmmm? I wished him a ‘happy birthday’ in this very thread, I think. It’ll be fine. ---

> [@Beckdawrek](#): > > @Cecil_Adams is celebrating 50years!! That’s 50 years of the column’s birth. Ceec isn’t telling us his actual age. These days that seems smart. I’m going to have to start dyeing my hair in order to get a job. ---

I kinda like thinking of him as a 150yo hermit with a huge head. Thinking massive thoughts and only passing those on he thinks us lowly folks can handle. Eh. 50 works.😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/oh-cecil-where-are-you-beckdawrek-summons-you/915969.md?page=15)
