All the best, Ian. Party hearty. I look forward to raising a pint or two with you in LR.

Happy Birthday, Ian. Too bad you're not down here. I'd take you to the Beacon Inn for lunch. I'd tell JC to hook you up with a barbeque plate aplenty with sweet tea. Then we'd head out for beers, listen to death metal, look for bleach-blonde bimbos with huge, natural racks, discuss the merits and demerits of unfettered capitalism, go four-wheelin' and shoot off guns. Too bad. Have a good one anyways.

My 30th birthday was my most memorable. Well, from what I can remember it was.

Whoa, 30 years! You ain't a kid any more! Old enough to be respected, but young enough to get in trouble...
Happy birthday, Ian!
