Mozart, Lewis Carroll, and…

Chopper, the Birthday Boy!
(No, I’m not telling how old.)
We're not quite sure how it happened, but Belly Timber took a year-long hiatus. Yes, it was agony. The cats sought their revenge by clawing our rugs and peeing in our shoes. Sometimes, we went days without cooking and our kitchen appeared frighteningly clean. Shameful, shameful indeed.

choppy burpday to you
Because you don’t want us to figure out you’re a cradle-robber, eh? ;)
Hey, don’t forget Mimi Rogers!!
(BTW, Sam missed her calling as a poet.)
HBD, CD!! (OMG, his jacket actually is monogrammed “Chopper.”)
I hope you’re having a fun birthday celebration.
I wish you a lot of cakes and hope there is not too many candles on them!
So are you very young or very old? Whichever, have a happy and many more!
Hippo bird day two ewe!
Thank you everyone. Yes, another year, another beer ;-)
Cookie — there’s a “Dave” after that “Chopper” too! And he’s got pants that match the toque. And I ain’t sayin’ nothin’ about that cradle-robbing thing.
Also, Alan Cumming and Frank Miller.
Me. I share a birthday with Vin Diesel. Now if I could just get him to drop by for a round of AD&D; I’ve got a 9th level Paladin that could kick his ass…
Hmmm, nice sort of slightly scruffy rogueish Nathan Lane thing going on there… :-)
Snicker. Now, if I can just get him to learn all the lyrics to Hakuna Matata…
Funny though. I always thought, in his scruffier moments, that Chopper looks like the secret love child of Mario Batali and Jack Black.
I did not just say that.
Damn. In. Trouble. Now.
Happy Birthday, Chopper Dave!
(Lord, how am I so behind? I just saw this. Oh, I know. The massive writing project. But it’s done! I can join the world again!)
Hey, I’ve met this birthday boy — a delightful experience, meeting both of you — and I have to say he does look a little like Batali and Black. Hm.
Chopper,
Happy B’day!
Thanks Shauna and Kev!
That’s right, I’ve passed the threashold, and am now venturing into the territory known as thirtysomething… “Bad TV?” you may ask. I only wish… ;-)
