Held my Dominion straps all through dance class.
Happy Birthday, Mistress Noddy!
Lord E--
We've both done some traveling in unseen realms this year. Thanks for the postcards.
Osso--
You're on my list as a charter member of the Valkyries--Mature Division.
Together we can do wonders at tidying battlefields.
Shewolf--
In another 30 years you can join the Valkyries--Mature Division. Meanwhile, you're earning your grey hair.
Chai--
Life is Grand--and you contribute to the grandure.
Sturgis--
Thanks--from one survivor to another.
Soz--
Blessed are the cheerleaders of the world for they shall see improvement.
Edgar--
I like our fan club--we're both articulate and modest.
BBB--
You're a woman with perspective.
Jes--
Thanks for the good wishes--and for keeping A2K a happy playground.
Littlek--
You're a woman on-the-grow.
Tai Chi--
Thanks for the kind wishes. You've got talent as a windmill tilter.
Kicky--
Articulate noir! Such a tribute!
Swimpy--
Civilization, 7. Barbarians, 6--and you're partly responsible.
Letty--
You're pure Southern comfort, honey. Pure Southern comfort.
CJ--
You have your priorities straight.
Realjohnboy--
Thank you for the kind words.
Djjd--
Thank you.
Mac--
Thanks for the good wishes. I'm now 66 and advancing towards my century mark.
Squinney--
...and I lift my glass to another resilient woman.
EhBeth--
Your plans for your 50th are inspiring me for my 70th.
And to all--hold your dominion.
I hope you are enjoying your day, Noddy. A very Happy Birthday to you!
JPB--
Thank you. I nearly didn't recognize you under your holiday finery.
Noddy --
Your insight is truly amazing; I have been a windmill tilter from way back.
Tai Chi--
We're a rare breed, us windmill tilters, but we're a congenial breed.

I choose to take that as a compliment, although there is a bit of barbarian in me, I think.
Happy Birthday to the Queen of the One-Liners...
You're the best, Noddy! (I hope you're writing a book.)
Swimpy--
You are a woman of simple tastes and you are close to nature, but you draw the line at body lice at the Bacchanal.
Eva--
You have a way with words yourself. Of course I'm writing a novel. I tell myself a chapter every night before I fall asleep.
Sometimes I'm more a Harpy (Harpie?) than a Valkyrie (Valkyra?)
Elegant set of acknowledgements there, Noddy.
I would certainly like to add my voice of a happy birthday cheer to someone who writes very articulately.
Hope it's been a good one!
Noddy, Thanks for the laugh.
Osso--
Valkyra? We're gathering souls, not hiking. Remember we deal in those out-of-place souls who wound up on the battlefield because the libraries hadn't opened yet. In the afterlife, every harper has to do a turn at Odin's Mead Hall, but once they've finished shouting of Deeds of Valor they come our way.
Reyn--
You're a man of words as well as of deeds.
Jex--
Thanks.
Swimpy--
Glad to help.
