Just wanted to say "Hi" after an extended absence. I probably will be keeping to the tech stuff for a while simply as a matter of personal choice. But in case anyone was wondering, Hi.

This is a simple hello, not a solicitation for adulation or showers of rose petals. But since you are already reading this, I'll take the opportunity to note that I recently had my SL 2 year rez-day that was properly commemorated in game with "cool" and "happy rez-day" which is exactly the sort of celebration I like. Actually, given the day length in SL, this may be my 12th birthday, but that's sorta academic.

Anyhow, as I like to give to others on my birthday, here's something that always amuses me; I hope you like it:

"You seem so sad, Eeyore."
"Sad? Why should I be sad? It's my birthday. The happiest day of the year."
"Your birthday?" said Pooh in great surprise.
"Of course it is. Can't you see? Look at all the presents I have had." He waved a foot from side to side. "Look at the birthday cake. Candles and pink sugar."
Pooh looked--first to the right and then to the left.
"Presents?" said Pooh. "Birthday cake?" said Pooh. "Where?"
"Can't you see them?"
"No," said Pooh.
"Neither can I," said Eeyore. "Joke," he explained. "Ha ha!"
Pooh scratched his head, being a little puzzled by all this.
"But is it really your birthday?" he asked.
"It is."

Eeyore made so much sense. Everyone else was acting like an idiot, and acquiring honey, while Eeyore simply accepted life.

AN INVITE WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE! Although, I was too busy cybering Introvert to attend.

Happy B-day Brotherman!

No kidding! I was saying the same thing as we only noticed when someone looked at my profile and said "Hey, your rez-day was two days ago!". Doesn't leave much time for planning.

Thanks for the well wishes, all.

Sweet, sweet Mal. Happy Rez-day!!

Which of course raises the deep philosophical question: If you cannot sleep on your friend's soil, are they truly a friend?

A most joyous (and belated) rezday greeting from yours truly, you smart & lovely man!

*smooch*

Eventually you'll be a geezer and far too ancient for even panda to cyber the alts of. But, although Kurt Cobain sang "My libido ... a mosquito," that is currently no Mal aria, is it?

I mean, word on the street & all.

(Okay, okay. I must stop having lunch with that Kate Hanks!)

Heh, heh: "even panda"

"even"

ROFLMAO!
