I'm 33 today. I'm thinking that this should be a great year as 3 is my favorite number, double lucky right?

Mike

Exactly! Sound like good luck abound.

A 1979 baby, eh? I'm an 80 baby. Cool. Cool.

What about GG? & Brad?

Mike, I hope this year is a great one for you. :)

Laura, I'm a '90 baby (does that make me the youngest here on the forums?).

Brad AKA Moonwolf

I'm the same age as Mike. :) I turn 33 in May.

I've always thought you were the youngest, Brad. Maybe someone will speak up and surprise me! :O (I loved your birthday wish for a year of good Hoya health, btw!)

Glad you liked my wish, GG! :). Maybe someone will surprise me as well! Knowing the big 2-2 is right around the corner makes me feel optimistic.

Brad AKA Moonwolf

the big 22 *scoff*

I'm ten years older than U!

I kinda figured GG & MD were the same age...
And I'm not far behind, so that is super cooool!!

HB again MD. All the best, to a totally cool Uncle!

Happy Birthday Mike! I agree that you do so much for all of us here...many thanks for all your help, advise and insight you bring to this forum...we appreciate it! Hope you buy yourself a super NICE hoya for your special day! Many happy returns, Enjoy!

sue

A belated bday to you Mike! Hope your day was great! I'm also in the 33 club LOL... turned 33 in December. Anyone else? ;)

Lalla, Sue , and Lightning, thank you. :)

This Saturday is the official dinner party and then dancing, think electronic music though and not ballroom. LoL
I've requested that everyone who is attending dress up for dinner which is out of the comfort zone of many of my friends. I on the other hand love to dress up so I will finally be able to wear some of my newer clothes. I plan on breaking in some new shoes as well so I think there are going to be blisters on me feet come Sunday.

A belated happy birthday to you as well. And many thanks for all the information so generously shared and the beautiful photography to inspire all of us to grow as well as you do. Have a great party on Saturday.

Sharp shoes! Hope everyone lives up to your expectations and ends up with fashionably blistered feet after tonight. ^_~

Happy Belated Birthday, Mike! We all appreciate your help, advice, and wonderful photos. How did the party go?

I myself turn 28 in April. I figured that I was the youngest one here...thanks Brad for taking up that title! ;)

-Jacob

Thanks Bamma gardener.

Thanks Jacob.

GG those shoes ended up being the perfect dancing shoes, no blisters! Everyone did dress up although two decided to dress back down after dinner. It was a truly great night out!

Mike

Nice! I can think of 0 times that has happened to me w/new shoes. You must have been dancing within a bubble of birthday magic.

Jacob, LOL you're welcome ;).

Mike, glad to hear the party was a blast and it must be wonderful to dance in shoes that don't give you blisters. I can't really dance (does slow dancing count? LOL) but maybe I'll learn one of these days.

Brad AKA Moonwolf

Thanks Bamma gardener.

OMG! Missed it entirely. Happy Belated Mike!

I remember 33. It was a great year - I think (baby #1). Hope the coming year is wonderful Mike.

Natty little shoes...

Thanks Kelly! :)
