Happy Birthday Sis!
Nyah! Nyah! Teresa and Suzanne are a year older and I'm no-ot! I hope you are both having a good one. With a big fat piece of chocolate cake. Since Adrian is slacking in his duties, in honor of this glorious day here is the latest installment of "This Day in History":
608 - St. Boniface IV begins his reign as Catholic Pope, and altar boys have never been safe since then.1821 - Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador gained their independence from Spain.
1890 - Author Agatha Christie was born
1928 - Bacteriologist Sir Alexander Fleming notices a bacteria-killing mold growing in his laboratory which would later be developed into penicillin.
1935 - The Nuremberg Laws deprived Jews of their citizenship and made the Swastika the official emblem of Nazi Germany.
1946 - Actor Tommy Lee Jones was born
1965 - Green Acres debuted on TV
1973 - Delta Dawn by Helen Reddy topped the charts. It was a very bad year for music.
1984 - Prince Harry was born and thank God he takes after his Mother!
1993 - Liechtenstein prince Hans-Adam II disbands parliament. Too bad we can't get him to do the same to congress!
2000 - The motion picture "This is Spinal Tap" was released. Another one of many low points in cinematic history
Love Ya!

Aw, I kinda liked This Is Spinal Tap! Happy Birthday Mom & Auntie!!!
Yeah, me too. Spinal Tap rocks.
Spinal Tap is a great movie
"You see, most blokes will be playing at 10. You’re on 10, all the way up, all the way up...Where can you go from there? Nowhere. What we do, is if we need that extra push over the cliff...Eleven. One louder. These go to 11."
Perhaps we should show "This Is Spinal Tap" at the New Year's Party.
Or are you guys afraid to take it to 11?????
: O
Teresa, did you add that pic? That is hilarious!
I will concede that at least Spinal Tap entertaining. Along with rap music (Support the fine arts - shoot a rapper!), the movies Breakin', Breakin' 2 Electric Bugaloo, and Red Sonjia all came out in the 80s and they absolutely sucked.
Yes, I added it. Sorry for co-opting your post. I felt I had to give the youngsters here a taste of Spinal Tap.
No apology necessary Sis. I liked it. So did you get your cake?
I got a yummy chocolate cake - three layers! - with coffee frosting, made by Amanda and Michelle.
Amanda doesn't think it turned out very well and she thinks she needs to work on the recipe. I disagree, but if she wants to practice making chocolate cake I will try to be supportive ; )
