Don't feel so bad.
At least you were popular enough to be voted
on. I didn't get voted most likely to do anything.

Happy birthday happy smirthday.
Your contest is rigged.
If it wasn't rigged I would be in first place
seeing how that I am the best stock picker.
Did I mention that I went broke in the market and
now the creditors keep calling.

:)Just having a little fun

Something just for you, Forest....

Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions. How old are you?... "I'm four and a half" ... You're never 36 and a half ... you're four and a half going on five!

That's the key. You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number. How old are you? "I'm gonna be 16." You could be 12, but you're gonna be 16.

And then the greatest day of your life happens ... you become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony ... you BECOME 21 ... YES!!!

But then you turn 30 ... ooohhh what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk ... He TURNED, we had to throw him out. There's no fun now.

What's wrong?? What changed?? You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40 ... stay over there, it's all slipping away ...

You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you're PUSHING 40, you REACH 50 ... and your dreams are gone. Then you MAKE IT to 60 ... you didn't think you'd make it!!!!

So you BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you're PUSHING 40, you REACH 50, you MAKE IT to 60 ... then you build up so much speed you HIT 70! After that, it's a day by day thing. After that, you HIT Wednesday...

You get into your 80's, you HIT lunch. You TURN 4:30, my grandmother won't even buy green bananas ... it's an investment you know, and maybe a bad one.

And it doesn't end there ... into the 90's you start going backwards... I was JUST 92 ...

Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again ... "I'm 100 and a half!!!!"

Happy Birthday Forest... you'll soon be PUSHING 40, and hopefully still young then.

<< SITE UPDATED Thursday 11/19

Sorry folks, I have been very busy...

Also, tomorrow is my birthday and I will be a young and fearsome 37..

Any gifts or notes of congratulations for making it this far would be
appreciated. I was voted most likely to die or spend my life in prison.>>

Happy Birthday, Gump-man ...
What are you going to do to celebrate that 37 years of existence ...
I put in my vote too - most likely to die 'at 99 years young' - spend my life in prison - we know who is the cellmate of Michael Milken ...
