Happy birthday, standup!
Remember the last time I was over at your house and you went into that defensive pose and started yelling, "What the hell do you want, Ratzenhofer? Get off my property!"
I started chuckling and took a picture of you because you looked so angry. I could see Pigsy cowering in the background -- one very scared cat.
Anyway, I explained to you that I was in the neighborhood and just stopped by to say hi and see if I could borrow a few duck eggs.
You slammed the door in my face.
I felt bad about the intrusion, and realizing today was your birthday I took the liberty of developing that photo of you. I think it's a good photo and I also painted your nickname, China Doll, on the photo.
Would you mind terribly if I called you China Doll in future correspondence?
Anyways, here's your gift, and again.... happy birthday!
....china doll?....Sure, whatever....lol
