Well, seeing there's been some competition over who begins personal birthday threads recently, I figured I'd get a jump start.

In a couple of hours (at least, for us folk on the West Coast), it's going to be none other than our dear
Red's birthday!
Let's hear it for him!
A great member, indeed: Bringing sparks of underhanded humor into threads is something he does very well! I'm sure that all of us here appreciate you as forum buddies, Red, and that some others (like myself

) appreciate you as the truly good friend that you are!
Always willing to listen and to offer a helping hand, I should think that today it is our turn to send him our sincere regards and warm wishes.
I hope that you have a wonderful day, Red! One that is filled with joy and happiness with all of your loved ones! May everything good and nothing bad be bestowed upon you on this day.
Have a good time and party hard: Today's your day!
*hugs* Happy birthday, again.
