HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

A toast to you, dear Matty, on this most auspicious of days! Now, drop the trousers and bear it, honey, cause I want to spank it in so many ways.  ;D

Here's to many, many more!

HUGS,

BTW:
I am going to get in trouble with him for this -
but Matty is just a plush toy giving, bedtime story telling, sweet (old! bwaha) Australian.
Don't let him fool you too much. As tough as he acts is as wonderful and supportive as he really is. Haha.  :D
There are a ton of times I would have been totally lost and confused without him to give me some sense and help me work through things.
I just wish everyone else in the world was as knowledgable and stuff. Especially when it comes to plush wombats and equally important things.  Hehe.

To all of you,

Thank you for this lovely birthday thread. This birthday has been the best one I've had in years and this thread is quite honestly the highlight. I love the pictures (especially yours Ann) that you guys have gone to all the trouble of making. It reminds me of the good things we do here and the valuable contribution each of us makes to the lives of everyone else.

I'm not overly given to sentiment, but this has meant an enormous amount to me.

I love you all.  :-*

Oh Well, I am old enough to be a day late, and a dollar short.  ;)

Matty, rather than wishing you a happy birthday, which by your witness you have already shared was stellar; I wanted to personally thank you for the impact that you have had on my life.  I cannot imagine this forum without you, and cannot think what my life might have been without the poking and proding that has come from your fingers to the world. 

I don't think any of us can fathom the incredible power that this place has for us, and you have been and continue to be, one of the people that always go beyond your personal feelings of safety, and place yourself out there for all to see.  This is not an easy thing to do, and continue to do, so I wanted to take this chance to personally thank you for being my favorite Crustation.

I trust that this upcoming year will hold excitement, and wonders for you that you might not have even dreamed of sampling.  Let us all enjoy the next year with Matty, and let's all keep each other entertained, while still holding that deep respect and love close, throughout the year.
