- Go to Born on the 29th of February? Happy Leap Day Birthday!
Wonderful, Sira!
I just about busted a gut laughing. I remembered, from checking your "about me" page, that you actually are at the ripe old age of 25. It's good to make an old codger laugh.

Re: They do, Sira
I suppose they do--I don't look a day over 25

They do, Sira
At least that is what the cosmetics companies seem to be claiming for all the anti-aging and anti-wrinkling creams and lotions they have been marketing in recent years. And they've been making millions, if not billions on them! So they must work, right?

Funny, sam
Funnier was the fact that I was ready and rarin' to spend all day Saturday readin' and writin' while my borrowed *&%$#@ computer was ready to act up with a vengeance. If it gets any funnier around my place it's also going to get expensive. I'll have to fork out some non-funny money to pay for this pile of junk after I bounce it off a couple of walls and tread heavily (as in stomp) on it a few times.

They have to be special, afzal
It takes a special person to be able to put up with always having to celebrate birthdays a day early or a day late. It probably takes a special sense of humor to put up with all the jokes about the unusual birth date.

Good one, soulspeaker!
And I bet they hang around with the belle who just celebrated "sweet sixteen" -- and looks
sixty-four!

Talk about an effective form of anti-aging!
Imagine, only having to face a birthday every 4 years--if only the cosmetic companies could bottle that kind of youth

Hi, Kabu
Thanks for dropping by and helping me to celebrate both Leap Day and the 1st of March. I just checked out "Dragg-butt" and am looking forward to seeing where you go with it.
