Happy birthday Bill.
I'll charge up an Orgone accumulator with Chi and have is sent round immediately, but don't use it all at once, or you might burn out your Chakras.

I hope a whole bunch of saucer-shaped vehicles piloted by little gray fellows with almond-shaped black eyes descends upon your property for your birthday celebrations, Bill.

ohhhh...my....SUCH wishes! I do appreciate all almost all of them! *grin*...

If only I could spend my days like the hamsters, but alas, there is wood needing my attention, and a **FOLK FESTIVAL** in 3 weeks! Therefore, the 'official' celebration on my 65th...*gulp* will be postponed till after the chaos!(anyone who can get NEAR Wash. DC on the 5th & 6th of June can see me, my wood, and several hundred folkies at a free festival. )

Thanks all!!!

Dear Bill,
I sympathize. If you recall, Dean and I had to postpone our honeymoon until after the Washington Folk Festival, years ago. Some things don't change. We will properly celebrate later; for now, have Rita give you a hug from me, and get back to work! See you at the festival.
Happy Birthday and Much Love from Carly

Bill, I checked with the aliens to see if I could get them to honor your birthday in a memorable fashion. Well...imagine my surprise to discover that the aliens don't believe in you!!!

No, they refuse categorically to entertain the idea that someone or something as unlikely as a "Bill D" could possibly exist! Nothing I said would sway them. I indicated the hundreds of threads to which you have posted. They said, "Posts can easily be faked." I pointed out that many people believe in you and communicate with you on a regular basis. They said, "Yeah, and people keep seeing Elvis in shopping centers too, don't they? Those kind of people." I showed them pictures. They said, "You know perfectly well that pictures can be tampered with through digital technology and other common techniques. We believe that these photos are either very unconvincing fakes of a manufactured dummy of a "Bill D"...or they can be explained as a perfectly ordinary phenomenon, such as Venus, a stranded weather balloon, or a horse's ass shot in rather dim light."

Well, I was appalled at their closemindedness, and I got rather angry. You would think that beings who have managed to create an advanced civilization with high technology would have a little more imagination than that! Or a little less arrogance...

I talked myself blue in the face trying to convince them you exist, and all I got for it was pitying looks. "Look," they said, "we need solid empirical evidence. Got it? All you've given us is hearsay, all these supposed eyewitness reports from hundreds of unqualified people who are probably just seeking media attention or trying to make a quick buck, and some obviously bogus photos and transcripts that weaken your case rather than strengthening it. If there really were a "Bill D" out there, don't you think our scientists would have discovered it by now? Hmmm? Don't you think this "Bill D" would have openly tried to contact our government? We strongly advise you to abandon this Bill D obsession, because frankly...you are starting to look pretty silly...or else crazy."

I'm about ready to give up on the little gray fuckheads. They are as close-minded as their human counterparts.

hmmmm...I don't suppose while you were working on them to believe in me, you sneaked a digital picture?? No?...awww, durn! Now **I** would be willing to submit one of me, holding todays Washington Post for their perusal...no, could be faked....hmmmmmm...tell you what. Tell 'em to name the night, and I'll meet them at midnight by the old oak tree behind the barn, where I will dance, sing and recite text from "Close Encounters" "E.T." and "Batteries Not Included" and offer to ride to the stars with them!

I aims to be cooperative, I do! Just don't send any little gray so-and-so's who don't have a sense of humor, 'cause I intend to treat them to a LONG tirade from an old philosopher who HATES being the last one to get the facts!

(Oh...BTW...if I get that saucer ride to the stars, you, Little Hawk, are invited to come along...it's only fair trade for the introduction!)

I arrive here today and find two birthdat threads that are sufficiently bizarre as to not require my services to appease Joe Offer who complains that they are all the same. Of course as the two in question are Wyzzie's and Bill's threads, I guess it isn't so unusual........Geeze Bill, it's hard to believe I remember your 60th! Well actually I read it after the fact a bit since I was otherwise incapacitated.............Anyway, here's just a little touch as I also left Wyzzie....just so you know it's me!
