Struck me as significant anyway; later today I'll be finding a quiet hour for The Devil in the Belfry and The Balloon Hoax.

are you sure its not a cataleptic attack, and he's not still in the coffin scrabbling away?

And there you are sharing his birthday, WLD - and a significant one at that. Hope you're having a good one anyway.

Perhaps I'll open that cask of Amontillado I've been saving.

A peel of BELLS would perhaps be appropriate!

Happy Birthday, wld!!

You, too, Edgar!

One of the best compliments I ever got about a short story was it could've been written by Poe; and they didn't mean that as a poor imitation.:-)

I can guarantee you all it is not Weelittledrummers 200th birthday... Happy birthday Al. Al is 21 again this year!

More messing with thread titles! One would hope WLD doesn't see himself on quite the same level as EAP, who, one would have thought, is deserving of a thread all of his own even though no one seems too fussed. Can we have it back to the way it was, please?

WLD,

Many happy returns!
