Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Genie Date: 26 Aug 07 - 02:40 PM As Jenny's song says, birthdays come but once a year. Aren't you glad you're not a birthday? |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: John MacKenzie Date: 26 Aug 07 - 02:49 PM KT, you were born during Joe's lifetime, not the other way round. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Celtaddict Date: 26 Aug 07 - 05:21 PM And Joe, as KT's post reminds us: YOU do not celebrate your birthday because you are getting older. WE celebrate your birthday because we are glad you were BORN. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Gorgeous Gary Date: 26 Aug 07 - 05:32 PM Almost run out of month here... Happy Birthmonth Joe! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: JennyO Date: 26 Aug 07 - 11:23 PM birthdays come but once a year. Heh heh, reminds me of the old joke about Santa Claus, who only comes once a year, and when he does, it's down the chimney. Aren't you glad you're not Santa Claus :-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: KT Date: 27 Aug 07 - 01:50 AM lol Giok!! I guess you're right! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Celtaddict Date: 29 Aug 07 - 09:59 AM Yikes, it fell off the bottom! Happy birthminutes, Joe! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: jacqui.c Date: 29 Aug 07 - 01:32 PM And we might as well keep it going until the last minute........ |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Joe Offer Date: 29 Aug 07 - 01:35 PM Well, I got a birthday thread, and I admit that it is a very nice birthday thread - but did I get presents? Hmmmm? -Joe- |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: MMario Date: 29 Aug 07 - 01:37 PM jeeprs creepers - don't even think of closing down the happy birthmonth yet! There are over two birth-month days yet to go! Over 58 birth-month hours! Heck - we still got over 3500 birth-month minutes we can wish him! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: MMario Date: 29 Aug 07 - 01:38 PM That was Sinsull's job. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: gnu Date: 29 Aug 07 - 04:02 PM Presents? Cheeky! You got presence. More than most of us. Take what you can get. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: SINSULL Date: 29 Aug 07 - 04:06 PM And don't forget, on September 1 the Very Happy Unbirthday Celebration officially begins. Presents? You want presents???? I can manage a few at the Getaway. HMMMMM Let's see...what would make Joe happy? or cringe? |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Joe Offer Date: 29 Aug 07 - 04:39 PM I knew that would bring out SINSULL. Joe Offer, be afraid. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: katlaughing Date: 29 Aug 07 - 04:59 PM And if you want to know how old I am, wait a minute. I have to do the math. I don't think you have enough fingers and toes to do the math, Joe. Now, if ya want us all t'come over, you could use ours, too! That might give you enough to get that high!**bg** |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Joe Offer Date: 29 Aug 07 - 08:37 PM Well, it's pretty easy just now. All I have to do is get together with a couple of friends, count all our fingers and toes, and subtract one. Takes me only about ten minutes to compute my age nowadays. -Joe, age 59- (with help from my wife and my mother-in-law) [the cats and dogs just confused me, and they started nipping] |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: curmudgeon Date: 29 Aug 07 - 08:59 PM While I'm here, and before it's too late, Happy Birthday, Joe. and thanks for all the good shit you do for Mudcat - Tom |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: jacqui.c Date: 30 Aug 07 - 07:18 AM Hmmmmm, birthday presents for Joe................ He he he he he he he..................... |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 30 Aug 07 - 08:04 AM we're going to have to do better next year - did ya notice the gap between the 8th & 21st? There could have been at least 13 more birthday/week/month/minute greetings to Joe? sandra |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: John MacKenzie Date: 30 Aug 07 - 09:26 AM Hippy brothday Joe Giok |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Amos Date: 30 Aug 07 - 10:26 AM YEah, Joe's fifty-nine this month, and he was fifty-nine last August and the August before that, and... . It's just a thing he does, man. Dig it... A |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: jacqui.c Date: 30 Aug 07 - 04:45 PM And I just found a birthday present for Joe. He'll have to wait fore the Getaway to get it though. He he he he he .................. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Joe Offer Date: 30 Aug 07 - 08:13 PM Hey, Amos, that's not fair! I was 58 last August, although I can't remember if that was before or after my birthday.... But my stockbroker says I can take money out of my IRA in 6 months, when I turn 59-1/2, so I'm going to replace my 9-yr-old Honda and give the old one to my stepson. Aging has some advantages. -Joe- |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: ranger1 Date: 30 Aug 07 - 09:08 PM Happy close to the end of birth month, Joe. And didn't anyone ever warn you to be careful what you wish for, 'cause you might get it? I'll be more than happy to share a couple of my gifts from SINSULL and jacqui! And Mary volunteers in a gift shop full of tacky lighthouse-related trinkets, too. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Wilfried Schaum Date: 31 Aug 07 - 03:27 AM Last chance to send your best wishes, Catters! Tomorrow will be too late! And if by chance today should be your birthday, Joe: Happy birthday to you, and all the best for many happy returns! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Barb'ry Date: 31 Aug 07 - 04:48 AM Happy Birthday Joe - hope you have a great year and have had a wonderful birthday month. love barb'ry |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Alice Date: 31 Aug 07 - 09:07 AM Amen! |

Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: John MacKenzie Date: 31 Aug 07 - 09:45 AM But it's Saturday in Sydney. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: JennyO Date: 31 Aug 07 - 09:56 AM Not for another four minutes, Giok :-) 11.56pm here on Friday night. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: JennyO Date: 31 Aug 07 - 09:58 AM Anyway, it will still be August for Joe for another few hours. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Aug 07 - 10:01 AM Do you think he wishes that he had let us know his actual birthday - it would have been all over and done with a lot faster - or maybe that's why he didn't. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: John MacKenzie Date: 31 Aug 07 - 10:25 AM We have another 11 months in which to wish him a Happy UnBirthday of course. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: JennyO Date: 31 Aug 07 - 10:55 AM I think Joe secretly LOVES birthday threads, and by not telling us the date, he gets a nice big thread that's guaranteed to keep going for a month. That's what I think! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: gnu Date: 31 Aug 07 - 11:06 AM Well, Joe... one last time until next year... Happy Birthday! Gary |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Donuel Date: 31 Aug 07 - 11:20 AM As Peter O'Toole would say "A finer man has never breathed" |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: JennyO Date: 31 Aug 07 - 10:25 PM And just before this thread gasps its last, Happy Birthday Month for the last time this year, Joe. Here is your new Unbirthday thread ;-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Janie Date: 31 Aug 07 - 11:59 PM The clock is ticking down as Joe Offer's growing older His beard all grizzled gray and his bald pate feeling colder This birthmonth's nearly done; Only 20 minutes left To pity this poor man another year of life bereft He keeps us straight (or tries), trademark brown font a reminder that if we ain't polite he will function as our minder Here and there he posts a lyric with a footnote and a credit Post in haste. Rue your words. PM Joe to quickly edit What you typed that you now see if it stands you will regret it Five minutes left to plague this man I'm running out of rhymes Three now remain to give him pain, now two, now one, there's no more time Happy Birthmonth Bro Joe Offer!!!!!! (Is that lame, or what?) |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: catspaw49 Date: 01 Sep 07 - 10:52 AM I have had it!!!! Great Christ on a fockin' crutch!!! For years I have tried to support you Joe. I know your supposed hatred of ANY birthday thread for a variety of reasons and specifically because they tend to say just the same old things. In trying to ease what I believed to be your suffering, your angst, over this I posted to almost all of them with a different message guaranteed to make the thread "different." Over the years I have told various wonderful folks to fuck off, get bent, bite me, kiss my ass, etc., for absolutely no other reason than to relieve your troubled mind. Well you can just fuck off, get bent, bite me, kiss my ass, and take a hot lead enema to boot. You really are a sleaze and a lying sack of shit. You love these damn threads! No need to admit it because its obvious. We can all see what you've done and it is so pathetic and self-serving that I don't know how I can ever respect anything of yours again. YOU HAVE CREATED YOUR OWN GROUP OF JOE'S BIRTHDAY THREADS!?!?!? You're pathetic......talk about your broke-dick mamaluccas............Man, you really take the cake. Don't send me any apologies you fockin' weasel. I will be forwarding this message on to Shambles as I know this is what he expected of you and will be relieved to see himself vindicated. He is of course a complete asshole himself but now he will be an asshole with a smile. Blow me Spaw
As for all that other stuff: PLEASE, NO ENEMA!! I just got done with a colonoscopy not very long ago, one of the joys of being well over 50. Thank you all, even Spaw, for the good wishes, even though I still hate birthday threads. -Joe Offer- ....and I have to admit that I am duly impressed that Janie was able to fit in a message at exactly 11:59 PM on the last day of August. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: John MacKenzie Date: 23 Sep 07 - 01:01 PM What Spaw said. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Janie Date: 18 Aug 15 - 12:19 AM Just to keep up the tradition of annoying you with birthday threads, Joe. Rumor has it that today or yesterday (or was it last week or next week?) In any event, 'Spaw came to me in a dream and commanded, "Just do it!" Happy somethingorother anniversary of the day/month in which you were born! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: GUEST,Rapparee Date: 18 Aug 15 - 03:01 AM If it really IS your birthday, don't worry be happy. |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Joe Offer Date: 18 Aug 15 - 04:05 AM Well, so far, in all these years, nobody has given me birthday greetings on the actual day of my birthday. They're getting closer now that Khandu isn't around to lead them astray... |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: Sandra in Sydney Date: 18 Aug 15 - 04:46 AM enjoy celebrating the anniversary at the date of your choosing! |
Subject: RE: BS: Happy Birthday, Joe Offer! From: GUEST,# Date: 18 Aug 15 - 07:51 AM Joe's birthday is August 17. Only 364 days to go. |
