06 Apr 05 - 11:20 PM (#1454084) Subject: BS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHANTEYRANGER, April 7! From: sixtieschick On April 7, 1953 a star shone in the east and three moderately wise men roamed the highways and biways of Berkeley, California bearing a fiddle, a job offer from the National Park Service, and recipes for 100 ways to cook chicken (the future mainstay of chanteyranger's diet). Meanwhile, his sister Miriam hid the wee babe in ecologically sustainable bullrushes, thus protecting the future chanteyranger from harm so that he would one day rise to fulfil his glorious destiny, filling the air with mariner's songs and Scottish fiddle music. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHANTEYRANGER! You are a treasure and a pleasure, and this crazy planet is all the better for your presence. May you be here, making music, for many decades to come. With love, sixtieschick and embarrassing older sister, Miriam |

08 Apr 05 - 12:28 PM (#1455452) Subject: RE: BS: happy birthday to chanteyranger April 7! From: GUEST,Chanteyranger Thank you, sixtieschick, and to all! Any celebrating will have to wait til the middle of next week, as I'm in the midst of rehearsals and recording (and no day off, PoppaG). But, no complaints. The thread is a very nice birthday celebration in itself, so thanks again. I take it it's not Martinelli's you're swigging, open mike? :-). Chanteyranger |
08 Apr 05 - 04:06 PM (#1455536) Subject: RE: BS: happy birthday to chanteyranger April 7! From: radriano Good Grief! When you casually mentioned your birthday, I thought you were kidding. Oftentimes, behind your serious and innocent demeanor, there lurks a cackling joke-telling demon, arms flailing, spittle flying, feet shuffling fowards and back, forwards and back, forwards and back. A belated happy birthday to you. Row On, Whale Boner, Row On. Radriano |
