It's my birthday
Please send cookies. And firewire drives.
On a related note, because it comes up every birthday, a caucasian poured over:
- Cocoa Puffs
- Cocoa Crispies
- Cinnamon Toast Crunch
...The morning after really does help your body and mind ease the transition from the sins of the night before. Hair of the dog and all that. This year we'll also have black russians and golden grahams available, which I have yet to try but has come recommended.
I still have the rest of the X86 questions, and yes there'll be more than 2 parts, but tonight was spent sending off samples to Evan and yet again testing build after build. It's amusing to remove a bottleneck and test, only to find it exposes another bottleneck which has to be removed, which then exposes yet another bottleneck to be removed...
Evan and I kill too many nights with this stuff when we're both supposed to be doing other things.
The good news is the problem was found, and Evan fixed the problem, and AdiumX no longer takes 45 seconds to connect my 4 accounts while thrashing the disk... Well, this build anyways, which makes me happy enough to call it a day. I love my software fairies, I really do.

Happy Birthday, Drunkenbatman.
You've gotta try this:
2 parts Kahlua, 1 part Ouzo, ice if its a hot day.
Its a little odd at first, but the more you drink the more you'll like it! I invented it myself, although no doubt somebody can claim prior art. It has a bite especially if the parts are large.
Cheers!

Happy Birthday, though I'm sure it was all a drunken haze of fun. Enjoy it!

Happy Birthday!
Funny thing - my birthday is tomorrow. Some many people have before or after me birthday, but I don't one, who has on the same day.

Hey it's me again, the crazed drunken bastard from the middle of nowhere.
I'd like to wish you a very VERY Happy Birthday. I hope you fail to remember most if not all of it. That would be a sign of significant ingestion of WR's, but (please) don't stop there.
It's summer, (unless you live in Chile), which means mixing up gallon sized pitchers of gin and tonic (two bottles of gin, the rest tonic and ice). Now fill your favorite beer stein full of this absolutely delicious and refreshing summer adult beverage. Repeat where necessary, repeat again. Continue until your gallon pitcher is empty. Continue with dark ale and scotch until you fall face down in your vegetable patch.
Yeah that's it, just do a Hunter S. Thompson Birthday BASH. Go for it...utter annihilation.
Long live metabolic destruction. Long live HST...no wait, that's why I'm having this party, he assumed ambient temperature recently. Ah, this explains why I haven't been anywhere near sober in many months now.

There seems to be two of us.
Happy Birthday DrunkenFlyingRodent.

about disk cache, and writing out data, I've put

Happy Birthday! Thanks for the great writing, I enjoy every minute I spend reading this site.

Take care of yourself DB. We're thinking of you here in Texas.
[For the record - we are thinking how lucky we are that you are not near us and demonstrating the evils of drunkeness to the kids.]

2 part Vodka
1 part Kalhua
1 part Cream

This marks your second consecutive article where you don't link to the UTI interview. The box clearly said do not taunt happy fun Jesper!

Now go fulfil the first half of your name. Go on.

Happy Birthday from Germany!
Let's celebrate this with a white russian. :)
Cheers!

Dearest Michael,
I hope your birthday is a celebration of the very special person you are to us! We think of you often, despite how often we call/IM (although you'll find that I *did* call tonight only to get the answering machine). May the coming year be one of new beginnings and extreme joy. (This is probably best accomplished without acid or whatever buzz you used to get on at the creamery.) We love you and wish you the joy that we have!!! JC, mkc & TLC
