Ah, a birthday? This calls for a poem:

Jerrybaldy,
the inevitable,
dispenser of
advice
master of
shock
lord of
the LitNet realm
(or,
at the very least,
a duke)
we threaten to
drown
in his avatar
one question remains:
is he
really
truly
bald?

[PrinceMyshkin]

Isn't EVERY day JerryB's birthday? I thought that was what "birthday" meant.

Anyway, happy birthday, skipper.

Many happy returns, you old b----r -

I regret that a kissogram's out of the question
so make do with this in its place -
it may make you wince, or create indigestion,
but should put a smile on your face.

[Janine]

hahaha....loved your interview! Happy Birthday Jerrybaldy!!! My favorite quote is Lawrence's Self Pity as well - it used to be my page quote. My favorite painting is 'The Mermaid' by the great artist/illustrator Howard Pyle. It used to be my profile photo. Are you stealing these from me?...I guess you are off the hook....I had them when I first started on here - a number of years back.
