    AOL to that. Mine's on a saint's day :-(

    To be sure, to be sure, mine's on one too, begorragh - but I can't say
    that that has ever affected me in any way.

    Bejaysus, we've got the same birthday, so we do!

    Happy Birthday, Burt! 82 Today!

    Ian is about the same age (I guess), Clare Grogan is 64, and Howie jnr is
    of an unknown age, but probably looks quite young because he stays out of
    the sun and gets an old dude to to his gardening.

    Makes a change to make a birthday post where I'm confident that the
    Birthday Boys are still alive.

    And happy birthdays to the rest of y'all!

    That ol' clock will always tick-tock... But I reckon Burt's got another
    good decade or so of Usenet dementia left in him.

    Given his history of fat cuntishness and high blood pressure, I reckon
    Burt's pretty lucky to have made it this far.
