Hmm... note to self: humour doesn't really work in plain text...

     It's not feature creep if you put it
     at the end and adjust the release date.

I know, I'm late, but I'm trying to give you a freakin good 
day-after-birthday-day. That's something no one else did so far, right? ;-)

Happy birthday to you!

Regards,
Tim

I don't think that counselling is a subject for humour across the Pond. 
Unless you are Woody Allen (don't ask. Look him up :)

Let's see, last year got a call from my mother,...and four males dressed 
as females sang me Happy Birthday while riding in my cab.  That's it.

Mensa huh?

No, it's really just a function of reading certain n-g boards.  I 
stopped reading new users long ago.

Counseling's fun if you can afford it.  It's a very pure form.  Pay some 
one to sit there and listen while you piss and moan.  It really is fun. 
  That said, I'll bet hang gliding is a lot better for you.

I remember dogs and turtles,... maybe even toads?  I was unaware of the 
cats.  A coupla weeks back, appropos of nothing at all, mine just leapt 
at me and sank its teeth, up to the gums, into my knuckles.  Rendered my 
hand swollen and unusable for like a week.  Freakin' thing, I probably 
forgot its freakin' birthday card.

Mine did that just before we moved to Portland.

You have no idea what it's like trying to move house with only one hand :)

A late happy birthday!

I came back from holidays today, and I'm still catching up with things. 
664 unread messages on povray.off-topic (0 unread when I went away), I 
think I'll be forced to skip some :) At least I went thru those 200 email.
