Did you know that if you include your birthday in your profile, it shows up on Board Statistics when it's your special day? Now maybe everyone doesn't scroll down that far when they are in Main View, but I do, and I know a few others who do, so we notice when it lists someone's birthday.

I thought I'd start this new thread, so we can recognize these events.

And I'd like to start it off by wishing William T Brooks a

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Chilibill, we hope you have a great day, and wish you many, many more!

I have no problems with wishing Bill a Happy Birthday on this board but one of my very biggest pet peeves are restaurants that make a big production out of singing "Happy Birthday" to customers who go there on their birthday. In fact, I have walked out of many restaurants who did that and never gone back.

And if I'm still here on my next birthday, I'd appreciate it if everyone would just ignore it. I've told all members of my own family not to send me any birthday cards and not to call wishing me happy birthday. When you get to be my age, you don't like to be reminded of the fact that you don't have that many more years left.

<span style=\'color:red\'>Big Duke Happy Birthday![/b] :D
I hope your day is a great one big guy. ;)

And many more! :rolleyes:

If you don't want anyone to remember your birthday publicly on the message board, run don't walk to your nearest Control Panel within this message board and REMOVE your birthday from your profile.

On the other hand, if you, too, would like to receive colorful birthday greetings from your fellow message board members, head for that same Control Panel and change your profile to include your birthday (or at least a birthday :lol: ).

Stumpy, you must be older than dirt to feel that way :D (I'm just older than spit). In looking at your profile, I see you're in no danger of receiving remembrances on your special day. If you're still around on your birthday, we won't know it unless you tell us :rolleyes: .

Well, Chester, after I posted my comments about not wanting any birthday wishes, I did just that, i.e., removed my birthday info from my profile so no one would know when it is.

I'm not miserable, Arthur, it's just that I think some things are extremely frivolous. I don't like Christmas, either. :D

I've been away for a couple of day, with the two oldest sons finishing their SCUBA class with a two-day ocean dive, allowing them to become certified with the NAUI certification. As an old Navy diver, it did my heart good to see two of my sons get through the class and enjoy it.

Hi Bill

A very happy 74th birthday to you.

:agent:

ChilliBill,Happy 74th!!!! Birthday...Hope you have a great one.! :jump:

Thanks to all you Guys and Gals for that happy Birthday Greeting, but when you all get to be my Age you would just as soon Forget about it!!! All my Children and my Grand-Children made a Invasion on the Verde Valley up here by Sedona and the first thing they wanted to see was all the old "Movie Locations" in and around the Verde Valley. I was a Nervous Wreck when they all pulled out Yesterday. :fear2: And a good time was had by all! :uhuh: And I can not Gripe about my life, I have one Hell of a Ride!!! :rolleyes: Chilibill :cowboy:

And a good time was had by all!* And I can not Gripe about my life, I have one Hell of a Ride!!!* Chilibill

Sounds like you had a good time and I agree, you have had a hell of a ride. And there probably will be alittle more to follow. :D

So Chilibill, how many children and grandchildren do you have? How old are they? Are any of them John Wayne fans - do you get to enjoy the Duke with them?

We're glad to hear you had a good (if nerve wracking) time :fear: .

Chester :newyear:

All right Chester you ask for it!

I have 3 Children , one Daughter 54 years old, and one Daughter 52 years old, and a Son 49 years old. I have 6 Grandchildren and two of them are almost 30 years old. No Great-Grandchildren yet, I do not know whats the problem with Kids now-days I wish they would get to work, and get Me some Great- Grandchildren before "I've quit this mortal shore and mosey around this place no more"!!! :headbonk:

Oh yes it would be hard to be around Me and not be a Duke Fan. We all had to go to Sedona and see all the old movie Locations from "The Angel and the Badman" and "Broken Arrow" that was done in Sedona over 55 years ago. And then go out back of the house and shoot the Duke's Colt 45 from " The Shootist" !!! Chilibill :cowboy:

Hi Duke.45

Just like to wish you a veryHappy 24th Birthday. Oh to be that young again.

I do want to wish Idaho a Happy 21st Birthday.

For those who might have not met him, he was active when he came on board a couple of years ago. He chatted with many of us, and shared his personal life with us. He is right now a missionary some where (can't remember where) and would be gone for a couple of years. He would not have access to a computer, but looked forward to coming back sharing his experience when he arrived. As I look and see his profile, I notice that he has not returned and last posted in May 4, 2003.

I just wanted to tell you who have not met Idaho yet and look forward to his return. Happy Birthday, Idaho!

Cheers B)

to Idaho, wherever you are . . .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Cole Thornton,

Last night, when I came on, I saw Keith's birthday greeting to you, and thought to myself, Hm, I didn't notice any birthdays for today . . . ..

When I got on this morning, there it was, your birthday!! Then I realized that Keith had it over me by 8 hours, and he saw your birthday announcement before it was even today for us :uhuh: .

So . . . HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Hope you had a great day!

Chester :newyear: (and the Mrs. :angel1: too, of course!)

There you go Chester, and all that time, I was hoping,
that all of you Stateside, might have thought I was telepathic!!

Keith

Congrats Cole on your B-Day. Hope you had a nice day.

Hey Guess what??
IT'S ARTHURS BIRTHDAY.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARTHUR

So you timed you holiday to perfection?
What a great way to spend your 62nd Birthday?
Have a good time, have a good drink,
come back, one year older, but a lot more relaxed!

All the best,
Keith

Happy B-Day Arthur!!

Hope you have a great day and wich you many more!!

The time difference strikes again! You folks from the "far East" whose day has already started before ours has ended, know these things hours before we do :o .

So . . . even thought Arthur's birthday doesn't show up for us yet today, we checked on his profile, and indeed, August 31st is his birthday, so even though we've got an hour and fifteen minutes to go, we will wish him a heartfelt

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

:gossip:

Have a wonderful day, Arthur, and enjoy the rest of your vacation!

Chester :newyear: and the Mrs. :angel1:

HOLLY MACKEREL ARTHUR" I Sure Wish I Was 62 Again!!! :jump:

Hi to all

Many thanks for your kind wishes, I had a good day. When we got up there was a birthday card from the hotel and when we came back to our hotel room later that night there was a birthday cake waiting for us courtesy of the hotel management. Coupled with a bottle of champagne which we had won a coupkle of nights earlier for coming second in a quiz, it was a good night.

Regards

Arthur

Hello All
I bring salutation to EthanEdwards of Torquay England. Happy Birthday Keith-all the best to you.I have heard it said that there will always be an England and England shall be free if England means as much to you as England means to me.

Stepping past thoughts of Culloden and Glen Coe ( speaking of the Campbells Vancouver had one for Mayor of late at the same time as BC had one for Premier, neither one has done irreprerable damage), and acknowledging that in 9 generations of researched family geneology,one of very few exceptions to a five clan marriage system not only did not have the approved surname but was undeniably English ( said paternal grandmother's mother, one Honor Churchill a ((non first)) cousin of the great Winston a man whom not all loved but many respected), I must confess to having a warm and fuzzy spot in my heart for the southern neighbors of my scottish ancestors, who themselves came from Ireland with all the other Celts.

IMO folks have been moving around this planet forever, pushed by a desire for freedom, to avoid oppression, to increase the chance of survival, to find opportunity, and many other reasons. Sometimes I feel that the concept of nationality may someday be replaced with something global. In as much as there is so much potential for improvement in our species it may not be for many generations to come. As things stand nations exist and to all my fellow
members from the United Kingdom and her former colonies ( and all the rest ) I say heres to you.
To Sir Keith this word, we will not be together when it happens but if you will take my word on it, rest assured that I go now from posting this to seek Libation and to ask my good wife to join me in a salute to your day of birth celebration. I will say then; Heres to us, those like us, d__n few and some dead.
Perhaps in Monument Valley in 2006 or on the soil of my fathers people someday we may have the chance to do so in the flesh. Until then I hope you live your dreams, continue to share your life in good company and be ever at peace.
Good Hunting Kilo

Happy Birthday, Keith,
And many happy returns.
It's a pity that we didn't hear from you for the last time.
Regards and best wishes,
Senta

KEITH

Hi Baby Sis, I definately feel for you about rent. Mine is being raised next month by another $55.00. Prices are getting crazy these days.

You're welcome Sis,
If you'd have mentioned your plans earlier.
I am sure Carl and I would have popped round, with a few beers,
and joined in.

Keith

Happy B-Day Baby Sister

I'd been glad to pay for a round or two of Beer--just as long as mine was a tall ice cold glass of Root Beer. ;-))

Once again, I'm caught napping - HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY SISTER! May you have many more. Keep up your enjoyable posts!
Cheers - Jay :jump: :jump:

Thanks again for all the Bday wishes... I am almost done packing and about ready to load up the Uhaul. If I am not on for a few days don't panic I will be back ASAP, around the first of next week probably.

Try to behave boys and I'll try and hurry back.

Bill :cowboy:

Thank you, Senta, Keith, Hondo, Jay, IHW, CHANCE, and Chilibill, for the birthday greetings! It was a very nice way to log into the message board this morning, and head off to work with them all bouncing around in my brain :rolleyes: .

At first I was a little confused because some of the greetings originated yesterday (at least by the reckoning on my computer, which of course is set up for my time zone) and then I saw that Senta was the one who got the ball rolling, and I see that she is 11 hours ahead of me, so she would see the birthday before most of us - thanks, Senta :D !

And Chilibill, if I can figure out how to have more birthdays in a year, I'll catch up with you for sure! Otherwise, no amount of hard work on my part will get me there :headbonk: .

Well, it's off to work for me. I will have a nice dinner with the family this evening, and then we will head out to see Narnia - The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The kids have been looking forward to it since seeing the first previews last summer.

:lol: Have a great day, all, and thanks again! :lol:

see ya later old man ;) :D

hooroo smokey

Carl, Big Sis, Arthur, and smokey,

Many thanks for your birthday wishes! I had a good day, and a nice evening with the family (carrots and zucchini were the veggies on the plate - NO broccoli :o !). We enjoyed the movie (for which the Mrs. had the foresight to purchase tickets earlier in the day, as the show was sold out - not an empty seat in the place).

smokey, is a spring chook something like a spring chicken :rolleyes: ? Thanks for the compliment (as I'm sure you meant it that way :D ).

Chester :newyear:

hi chester

chook = chicken , we call them chooks

compliment it is to be old you have to feel old and i know we all feel like that some days but what the body wont deliver the mind surely does

glad you all liked the movie saw previews of that when we went to see the latest harry potter movie coming out soon they said so no telling now might just get the little bloke to the movies in the hols to see it

by the way "old man" is a compliment to just a friendly way we have

hooroo smokey

The Colorado Ranger,

We'd like to wish you a very

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Chester :newyear: and the Mrs. :angel1:

I remember john chisum mentioning in another thread that his birthday is December 27th, so I think I'll take this opportunity to wish him a

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

a little early, as I will be back to work tomorrow, and don't know if I'll have a chance then.

So john chisum, have a great day tomorrow, December 27 (which it already is in the UK, because of the difference in time zones).

Chester :newyear: and the Mrs. :angel1:

Thanks Chester

I will be having a big cigar later! :D

Despite recents events its nice that civility reigns ;)

I bear no grudge with the american members and hope they can register and enjoy my board as much as this one!

I was annoyed my material was taken and my trust betrayed, but despite that I wish to carry on enjoying this great JW board

Thank-you sincerely for your good wishes

John
