Re: Happy Birthday Dr. Smith- Nov. 6th

Oops!
    Sorry, Josh.   sad

    I spotted your birthday coming up and made a mental note to check closer to the time. The website problems pushed it to the back of my mind and, sadly, there it stayed!

    But anyhow, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH !!!   smile

    And to you, too, Immortal ... whoever you are!   big_smile

Re: Happy Birthday Dr. Smith- Nov. 6th

*Well, I'll have to ask pardon for wishing happy birthday to a non-member of New Mars (but who has been invited by me to join):  My friend since before Kindergarten:  Roberta.  She was adopted from Seoul, Korea around age 2-1/2.  She began school the same year I did, even though she's 1-1/2 years older than me, and I can't believe...she's turning 40 tomorrow (12/11).  I have so many good memories of her; my best friend through thick and thin for decades now.  I'm thinking how quickly time has passed...I thought people were only supposed to cry on their own 40th birthdays?!?  I remember, not long ago, when she pulled up into my parent's driveway and honked the car horn -- she'd just passed her 16th birthday and had her driver's license.

Roberta, if you read this, happy birthday.  ILU, AFA.

Re: Happy Birthday Dr. Smith- Nov. 6th

Hi Cindy! I only just noticed your last post here.
    You have my pardon for wishing a non-member of New Mars a happy birthday!!
                                            smile

    By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to HombrePequeno, who turns 19 y.o. today!
    Mentally, I turned 19 just 5 years ago. Unfortunately the calendar says otherwise.
                                        sad
    Either way, it seems like it happened very recently.

    Time moves on at a remarkable pace, Hombre, so enjoy being 19 while it lasts ... it's a great time of life!
                                                 cool

*Yes, happy birthday to Rex.  smile  Have a piece of cake for me, please. 

[http://www.tulsawalk.com/parks-places/t … ock-02.jpg]Someone else is celebrating his b-day as well; I caught the information on a TV news ticker.  His friend celebrated his on the 22nd, I recall Bill reminding me in a different thread.
