Dare I confess to a childlike pang of disappointment upon reading "no members are celebrating a birthday today" . My profile clearly includes my "Richie" birth date of twenty-tew/tew .

Posted

It's my birthday on Tuesday. (In the unlikely event that anyone is interested.)

I'm certainly interested to see if you if you get a Demonland cheerio......oh hang on.....you're a "birthday unknown" .

Me too Dee eee. Had my birthday last week, a significant one with a zero in it and not a word from you guys! I'll get over it eventually.

we thought you were like the queen, earl, and celebrate your birthday on a public holiday at a different date

we thought you had negotiated this with daniel

we await his pronouncement - what is another holiday after all - it will be good for tourist trade and a much deserved rest for the exploited common worker

DC Funny you should mention the Queen. I share my birthdate with Her Majesty's actual birthday, 21 April. Different year of birth of course.

God Bless Her!

Hey hold on DC Flavia was a lover of Domitian who spent his time persecuting Christians, where did the Popes come into it? If there were any in those early days of the Church.

no no earl, didn't you see the comma. i share a birthday with 2 popes, nothing to do with flavia

and....if domitian had done a half decent job on the christians, dee-luded wouldn't have his current obsession with pell and abbott to worry about, and i would've been spared the indignity of sharing my birthday with 2 popes.

Oh yes I now understand. I have always lamented the fall of the Western Roman Empire myself. Cruel yes but always fair, they didn't play favourites. If only they had managed to deal with Christianity at its birth we would still be able to pay homage to hundreds of gods for every cause without having to change our moral behaviour. My favourite when I was travelling through modern Turkey was an ancient Roman site near Pamukale where Roman pilgrims travelled to have sex orgies in celebration of the goddess of love. I mean I could have been very religious back then. But then the bloody Christian fun crampers showed up!!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
