Wishing you a Very Happy Birthday, Virgil! Take care, Kizzo :)
UNCLE VIRGIL!!!
You are by far a very important contribution to the forum and I hope you have the BEST OF BIRTHDAYS. Let's hear it for Virgil! :banana:
:bday_2:
Happy Birthday!
:bday_2: :banana:
I remember you were one of the first people I talked to on Lit-Net,
thanks! :)
Happy Birthday Virg.!!! Hope it's been a great day. For our favorite Lit. Net Italian American here's a cake depicting America's favorite pastime:

May you a enjoyable birthday and many more to come. Rich
Virgil, oh great, now this explains everything...lol happy birthday buddy...thank goodness Larry wasn't there for the party...what shenanigans would've ensued. Cheers, B
he has been the one to remind me that poetry...is what you make of it.
He nursed me through life in it's sad parts with such gentle friendship.........
Virgil, you are so wonderful. and it's funny that such a someone who doesn't agree with my contrary views never made me feel dismissed, I suppose I can't shut up about you, but I just wanted you to know how much you are loved. :)
Happy Birthday, Uncle Virgil!

NOW I SAY THIS WOULD BE ONE BIRTHDAY PARTY I WOULDN'T MISS!!! VIRGE!!! Happy Birthday, my brother....Wishing you a wild, happy, crazy, insane birthday, and Saturday, what a great day for it!!!!!! We defy time, O' to hell with time, you and the wife and that leprechaun friend of yours, go head into Manhattan NOW and tear the roof off the place. I'll be jumping from rooftop to rooftop shouting limricks to the moon toasting your birthday. And I'll sing this one, from the madman himself...my gift to Virgil, one I don't think he'd mind hearing broadcast from skyscrapers...

(And better start working on this list! ;))
10 things to do before you are 50:
1. Be Adventurous: Embark on a new experience. Travel to new destinations. Crandall detailed her recent trip to Africa as part of the magazine's "April Spirit of Adventure" issue. She climbed Kilimanjaro with her daughter and friend who turned 50 during the climb. Other suggestions: sign up for volunteer vacations or drive cross-country. You can volunteer to track wildlife, excavate the Anasazi ruins, or teach English abroad. Crandall says driving cross-country is an amazing way to see what America has to offer and learn about people in different areas.
For volunteer vacations, go to Earthwatch.org
2. Adopt Something: Adopt a baby, a pet, or enroll in "Save the Children" to sponsor a child in need. Crandall adopted a tree in a forest preserve near her house as a 20th anniversary gift to her husband.
To sponsor a child in need, go to SavetheChildren.org
To adopt a tree, go to Blackrockforest.org
3. Reconnect with a Friend: Google an old friend you have lost touch with. Crandall rediscovered her best friend from high school two years ago. Now, they do a 100-mile bike ride together every year.
4. Scare Yourself: Almost anything qualifies, but it doesn't mean you have to be a daredevil. Crandall says consider anything from public speaking to karaoke to open-mike night at a local comedy club. Additional suggestions include auditioning for a reality show, to moving cross-country by yourself, to launching a business to entering a modeling competition. In fact, More magazine hosts an annual 40+ model search.
To enter the magazine's model contest, go to More.com
5. Realize a Dream: It's never too late to realize a dream. Visit a place that's called to you -- perhaps Paris or Rome - or start a new career, whether it's opening a bakery or going back to school to become a doctor. Featured in April's More magazine are women realizing their life-long dreams, including Dawn Swanson, who went back to school to become a doctor.
6. Learn Something New: Consider learning a new language or taking cooking or art lessons. You may even want to combine any of these new experiences with a fantasy destination (as mentioned above). For instance, learn a language first-hand in a foreign country of your choice, take art lessons in Paris or a week-long cooking course in Tuscany.
7. Change your Hair: Whether it's a cut, color, or both, make a dramatic change. By this age, we have often established a default haircut: It looks good, but you've been wearing it for years. Try something new. It's a big change but a small risk, as hair always grows. If you are already dying your hair, consider letting it go gray.
8. Keep Your Medical Tests Current: Make sure your medical checkups and tests are up-to-date, including a mammogram exam. And by 50, all women should have a colonoscopy.
9. Discover Yourself: Get to know your family as people, not relatives, by writing a letter to your kids (or other family members) telling them the most important things you've learned. And then ask them to write one to you.
10. Do A Good Deed: Perform a random act of kindness. Treat someone anonymously. Sign up as an organ donor or give blood.
Happy Birthday, Virgil!! Hope you have a lovely day :)

Parody Rudyard Kipling For Virgil’s Birthday
.As dawn was breaking the LitNet Yelled
Once, Twice, and again!
And WE all leaped up to prepare the stuff
For Virgil’s party, all on the hush, hush
And they sent the old Dragon scouting alone, I beheld,
Once, Twice, and again
.As dawn was breaking the LitNet Yelled
Once, Twice, and again!
And Piglet stole back, as silent as a cat,
As brought all the news to the waiting pack!
And the Dragon sought and found the Auld Wolf’s Track!
Once, Twice, and again!
As Dawn was breaking The LitNet Yelled!
Once, Twice, and again!
Feet in the jungle that leave no mark, Virgil…
Eyes that can see in the dark, Virgil. My boy!
Ears that can hear your heart beat at 30 feet, Virgil, gonna get ya!
Everybody give tongue to it! Hark oh, Hark, Virgil!
Once, Twice and again!
Pendragon

happy birthday, Virgil
here is a cake just for you, but I don't know how to make the picture just show up so you'll have to click it
Happy happy oh!!! so happy birthday!!!
Oh my God. Thank you all so much. I will thank you individually tomorrow. You are all so wonderful. :)
Oh and before I forget, I'm 47 today, not 46 as some have mentioned. Probably someone saw my age before the date turned.
Correction: I am 46. :blush: :lol:
Or maybe they were just being nice Virgil, and helping you escape the grasp of the big 50 for one more year!;) So happy 2nd 46th birthday to you Virgil!:p
:blush: :blush: :blush: Wait a sec, Niamh. I just checked (and double checked with my wife) I am 46. I've been counting upward for the past few months and forgot I was 45. Yay, I'm only 46!! You know, senility is the first thing that happens.Quote:
