Hippo Birdie Toomey
in the tube where i was born
i could have sworn
there was so much to see
there was so little left to be
but i was free
the world at my command
through the doubts i ran
looking for a man
that looked like me
and now it can be told
i'm a quarter a century old
but i'm a half a century high
in the tube where i was grown
i was alone
the figure on the floor
the dream behing the door
the sound was low
ball game on the street
disappeared behing my feet
out of breath my heart would beat
to see a show
and now it can be told
i'm a quarter of a century old
but i'm half a century high
in the tube where i was killed
i was fulfilled
the lines of light would bend
i'd stare until the end
and then again
fascinated by the fad
i gave all the mind i had
and whenever i was sad
i had my friends
and now it can be told
i'm a quarter of a century of old
but i'm a half a century high

Pour chanter encore,
Bon anniversaire!
I love mah Ernie. Happy Day of You, Yo.
MWAH.
d00d. It's your birthday?!
You gotta be more obvious. Some of us can't read subtlty when applied to interpersonal dealings.
Do something fun tonight!
Heh, sorry Grandmastah. It's kinda strange, this whole birthday thing. I don't feel quite right being all "IT'S MY BIRTHDAY" cuz, well. . .25- kinda old for that sorta thing.
In related news, it's the 2 year anniversary of when the Grandmastah and I envisioned our ill fated roadtrip. A year and a day since Steve got married and a year since I decided I had to marry Nena.
Crazy stuff, yo.
Also, thanks Fressia, thanks Red. I appreciate it.
I'm having a small party in L-Town tonight. Cake, ice cream- yeah it's gonna be oldskool.
Hey Ernie, have a good B-Day!
happy birthday, ernie!
feliz cumpleanos! (minus the all-important tilda.. ;)
hope it all went well last night! big quarter century... you know, it's only another quarter century until you are a half century. wow. how's that for understatement of the obvious?
-itr-
Happy belated birthday, Ernie.
Hey, you can run for House now, can't you?
Yes, yes I can
