Happy Birthday, bbc! Thanks for all you have done for us. I recently lost everything in my email address book and your resources page has really been a big help in my keeping in touch with fellow 'Catters. Hope you have a wonderful day! Make sure Duane and David spoil you!

What Ho Varlet? Its a bbc HBD? Far out!!! Thanks for all you have done for Mudcat and for me. For your efforts, you deserve the best (although you are stuck with Duane) and I send you my best for you and for your aspirations for David. May all you wish come true.

BTW, I didn't see anything about this on your other website....No, not Mudcat Resources or your home page. The other one. I'll post there if I get a chance.

My friends,

It's been a good day & it's great to end it by reading your warm wishes! I enjoy the conversations & friendships I've made here. I've been happy to spend the past year working on the resources site. Bill, it was so sweet of you to start this thread for me! I hope that some of you keep a Mudcat birthday calendar over your computer, as I do, so you can wish those you know happy on their special days. Get those dates from the birthday list, send personal greetings or email. Hey, check the locator &, if they're close, take 'em out for ice cream! Check their profiles, if they have 'em, see what they like, & send 'em a gift! Just a thought, folks. Obviously, you wouldn't do that for everyone, but if each of us does it once in awhile, it can sure give someone a lift. BTW, did you know that the resources site in almost 1 year old & has almost 8,000 visits on it? I'm a proud mom! Yes, spaw, I'm proud of David, too. What was that about some other site? I think I'm being set-up, again! Well, love to all of you. I'm starting my 47th year very happy. Have you checked out my photo page lately? I put up a picture David recently took of me at one of our concerts & also a picture of our coffeehouse group.

Well Beebs..........No need to be modest about it. I know you didn't see this awhile back when we were discussing how we found Mudcat, but I came here from a link in your website. Since then, I found that quite a few 'Catters were into this type of site and I posted a list of them.......

Don't you just love thosp neon celebration signs?
So what did you get for your birthday?
Did someone take you out for dinner?
I hope you ate a big piece of birthday cake. I like the corner pieces, you get so much more icing.
Wishing you much happiness in you 47th year,
And thanks for all the work you put into the Resource page.

And thank you most especially for helping make the Mudcat the resource and the community it is.

P.S. Catspaw, I'm telling you, you need to be a writer, boy. If some of the writers I've edited in my life had a sliver of the imagination you do ... Well, I'd be in restraints by now, probably. But still ...

BBC, many happy returns! Thanks for what you have done for me, and for your encouraging words. By the way, I was hoping you weren't going to give these folks the age you have attained, since it is extremely close to my own.

But fear not, you look a lot better than I do. Cheers!

From: bbc

Well, Jed, I couldn't let you be the last; I had a few more things to respond to. Sorry to be reviving my own thread, folks.

Little Neo--On my birthday, I came home to balloons, flowers, cards (but real & virtual), & music gifts. Went out to a lovely dinner. The next day, I realized I hadn't had cake & Duane & I went to a local restaurant (after all, *I'm* the birthday cake baker in the family!) & had a slice of a chocolate cake so intense that you can only face it every 4 months or so, till memory fades. In the past 2 days, I've still been receiving cards by mail & email. I love birthdays lasting a long time! All the expressions of love are appreciated.

Clifton--I have to say that I feel I've done enough to be the age I am. I also feel I'm going into the best part of my life and I'm thankful to be alive.

Now, spaw, you are one sick puppy. Thanks for the link, though. I knew, from a reference you had made awhile ago in another thread that I had missed something you felt you should be punished for. I suspect I either had flu or walking pneumonia at that time. Although I might have, on occasion, tiptoed through the tulips in my bonnet (birthday suits being quite appropriate to this thread!), I don't recall the Mennonites being there. Is this a problem w/ my memory or are you getting just a tad carried away (again!)? If that mind could only be harnessed for the good of humankind! (Dream on!)

love,

bbc
