rubikon said...

Is it your birthday then?

Can't say I like The Darkness either - a bit too retro and derivative for me.

Hope you have a beautiful, scintillating, ecstatic, euphoric, orgasmic day

Oh, and Happy Birthday!!

STEVE:
Do you ever worry that all this blogging will sap the life out of your songwriting?? It seems to me that a person only has so much creative energy. If you use it all in this endeavor, what will be left when Marty and the lads come a-calling? Don't let us blog comrades steal the energies that you should be putting into music!!! Please!! Despite your genius-osity, you are only human. I selfishly implore you to limit the blogging for the sake of your song writing.

Umm... OK, that's all I have to say. Good night.

Steve, a big hug to you on your birthday. Hope you've been having a great day. 13 has always been my favourite number.

Fly said...

I saved everything
But this afternoon I just ran out of room

Point of interest - the worlds oldest living person
stays just up the road in Mempho.
She’s 116 and though she has outlived many of her children,
she is credited for 560 descendants;
all the way to great, great, great, great, grandchildren.

indecipherable overlapping mumbling

However, the life expectancy in Memphis
is the lowest in the state at an average of 73.

Welcome to Area 52, I stumbled in dazed and blinded back in May, got the full-deck too. It's bittersweet.

A most Happy Birthday, ArchDruide, Moonchild - Dreaming in the shadow of the willow, talking to the trees of the cobweb strange, dropping Mayan stones on a sun dial - drifting on the echoes of the hours.

Hope your gifts are plentiful and powerful - you've given so many to us over the years. I look forward to many more.

Steven,

You shoudda realized by the ominous skies, destiny was dealin' you a joker, olde guy.

Happy birthday to my favorite rock star. Put on some Oophoi, smoke a spliff, and contemplate your vast insignificance in the neverending cosmic twilight, baybee.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! The world is a much better place with you in it. Thanks for being you and making our lives more enjoyable. Hope you have a fun day whatever you do. Please see yesterday's comments if you haven't already. You had a lot of nice notes left in the later hours, even in the early hours of the 13th (Aust. time). So, again, CHEERS!! All the very best to you, dear friend, and may you have many more birthdays to come. All the love and respect from one hippie rocker to another...

Absolute pessimism, that.

Life is full of brilliance and warmth. This morning my daughter handed me a box of dark chocolates and played 'happy birthday' for me on her trumpet. I will be smiling all day.
