The Birthday Song I Wrote All By My Self
                by Rapparee

Ahem...

          Happy Birthday to you
          Your nose is so red
          You're another year older
          And soon you'll be dead.

Except that Amos can sing it all he wants on his birthday.

Can't wait, Jacqui!! Donuel, thanks for the kind remarks. They are reciprocated. It has been a wonderful day, mostly domestic stuff, cleaning up after a long grueling drive from Verde Valley yesterday pulling a big trailer. Whoof! 20 hours end-to-end. Today I am full of delight being alive and young in this brave new world spread out before me.

Congrats on living another year

You have always given me great surprise by your unique perspectives, perspectives that while shared with many others here, rise to evidence of a well integrated pan consciousness with hints of omnicient observational skills.

I know, let's all head over to Amos' place tonight and throw him a big birthday party - we all had a blast at the last one at his house, but he missed out on it, stuck cooling his heels in Aruba or some such nasty place. I think we owe it to him, don't ya'll?


Glad it was a good one friend, and it is a delight to know you.

Self publishing, not a lot. It can be done very cheaply if you do all the formatting and art yourself and just put a PDF up. The channels for market through Amazon and the Apple bookshelf are getting much easier to access. You can also buy a service from various places that will prepare and launch the book from your copy for a fee. Some folks have made money doing it.

On a more traditional line, you could send out a lot of query letters to appropriate agents and get one who will be your interface to the publishing world. This can also be frustrating and time consuming.

Why, you rascals!!! What a pleasant surprise!!

THanks so much for the kind wishes. Best beloved Wyfe hauled me out to the Ruth Chris steak restaurant for the best filet I have ever had. Dear companions and good vino and impeccable service made it a first-class evening.

I dunno about the whole "old" thing. Looking outward the world looks about as young as it did when I was thirty, and that's how I seem. Maybe I just haven't been learning my lessons properly but I am still a bit rambunctious and prefer laughing over being serious.

THanks again!!

999, he doesn't look a day over 81, but he can still drink his Geritol on ice, eat some prunes, and have a birthday. How happy it is depends on how many prunes he eats.
