My baby turns 21 OT, possibly long (I haven't written it yet) and probably boring
Happy birthday wishes coming for Mandy - who as I remember was the
only one to get Sammy to relax that evening at the Wild Life Refuge I was stationed in Fairbanks Alaska on my 21st birthday. Unfortunately, it happened to coincide with the building of the Alaskan Pipeline, and Army people were definitely poor when compared to the pipeline workers. There were, as I remember, three of us with BDs within a few days of each other, so we had a big party. The evening started out going to a rustic bar where we could only afford maybe one drink, but the real party was back at the barracks later on. -- Steve Touchstone, faithful servant of Sammy, Little Bit, Spot, Princess and Furby with loving memories of Rocky (RB) video clips at http://tinyurl.com/29o8ck photos at http://tinyurl.com/22pfn8 |

The other two are Rob and his mom. She is the only one who can get all the cats to cooperate when claw clipping time comes up, can snap her fingers and trill and the cats all come running, usually has at least two cats following her around at any one time and so forth. Rob and I decided that she is part cat herself. For what it's worth, her purrday was rather boring. She was tired from a long day at school, got mildly tipsy and went to bed and slept it off. No hang over, no silly behavior or anything else to get excited about. But at least she was home and not risking herself at a bar. Pam S. the bare kitten's mother |

To people in the UK school is something they stop going to at 16-18 then they go onto the above places One great mystery cleared Cheers Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

I am the older by seven years Pam S. who got a lot of cradle robbing jokes As long as he wasn't with you at the bar. My 21st birthday seems so boring comparing it to everyone else's fun stories... The most memorable thing I did was walk into the HR office and fill out some forms, because you need to be 21 years old in order to enroll in a 401(k) plan. Then, I was unceremoniously shipped off on a business trip to negotiate a joint project with some nanoanalysis company. |

She's leaning towards fine/graphic arts. I just want her to make an honest living at something she'll be happy with. Before Rob was diagnosed with a worse cancer, I went there as well to get my associates in english education. I believe I'm three courses away from my diploma. Pam S. |

Yep, the last member of the nest turns 21 on Friday. The gang has decided to get her as drunk as possible in my dining room. The booze is bought the pizza money is stashed and prezzies have already been given so that she will remember them. I'm supposed to take car keys, film, and cook a nice greasy breakfast for the party girl. Mandy was born on February 8,1987 at Fort Campbell Kentucky at the end of a wind storm that blew siding off of the newly re-sided duplex we were living in. Like all my births, we were between cars. snip Pam S. A belated happy birthday to Mandy! Best wishes, Polonca and Soncek |
