Happy, happy birthday, Ship! May you have many happy returns (and the voyages out which occasion them)!

It seemed to have a few extra slashes -- perhaps this is it?

Poor old Animal, though! He's only just keeping time and not rocking out--unless he does that later? Sorry, I got bored with it and had to watch something else. We drummers want to let it all hang out, sometimes, you know? Especially for the birthday of The Ship! YMMV.

Wow. No I am very sorry for having chosen so badly that you felt the need to interrupt a celebration thread to tell me so.

Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.

I'm sorry, everyone. I surely didn't mean to hijack this thread with my dumb comments about other people's comments. Long live The Ship of Fools! May you sail on, over bright and shining seas.

"I'm just saying 'A Happy Birthday,' said Owl carelessly. "It's a nice long one," said Pooh, very much impressed by it. "Well, actually, of course, I'm saying 'A Very Happy Birthday with love from Pooh.' Naturally it takes a good deal of pencil to say a long thing like that."

16 years? I have been a member on these boards since 2001, but I was also a member of the previous incarnation, so I have probably been here since 2000 or so. 14 years.
Wow. What a ride it has been.

When I first encountered the ship, my children were at primary school. Now I'm a granny. That's a significant chunk of my life. Happy 16th birthday, Ship!
