Staceyv! Happy birthday!

If you get smashed and sing karaoke tonight, make sure you share the pics with us!

elSicomoro 08-22-2005 08:32 AM

Speaking of karaoke, I still have to put up pictures of my brother and my friend Ryan doing drunk karaoke last Sunday night.

Clodfobble 08-22-2005 09:59 AM

Happy B-day, staceyv!

happy birthday lumberjim :)

wolf 08-24-2005 01:04 AM

Awesome that somebody's paying attention.

So, LJ, did you ever figure out what you wanted other than a cold sixpack and a kilo of weed?

Clodfobble 08-24-2005 09:15 AM

I rely completely on other people to tell me when it's someone's birthday, because I never stay on the main page for more than a second and I never scroll down.

Happy Birthday, Lumberjim!

mrnoodle 08-24-2005 09:21 AM

HB Jimbo. Umm.. I hate to say it public like but you haven't been posting enough lately.

plthijinx 08-24-2005 10:18 AM

happy birthday Jim!

Elspode 08-24-2005 01:49 PM

Happy 65th b-day, LJ. We look very much forward to your impending retirement as you should then have ample time to resume posting on The Cellar in your inimitable, often offensive, but always entertaining style which we have come to love and admire. :lol:

Queen of the Ryche 08-24-2005 01:59 PM

BigV 08-26-2005 01:19 PM

Happy Birthday, OC! Here's hoping you have a great day, fun with your family, and many more! Cheers!

Queen of the Ryche 08-26-2005 01:25 PM

Classic. Very very well done.

wolf 08-26-2005 01:28 PM

I was never a big fan of Boynton (she's right up there with Precious Moments Crap as far as I'm concerned), but I always loved that particular card.

Queen of the Ryche 08-26-2005 01:41 PM

Ed Zachary. The creativity of the words is far better than her little fuzzy critters.

BigV 08-30-2005 11:52 AM

Happy Birthday!

"The Birthday Dirge" is sung to the tune of "The Volga Boatmen". If you don't know the tune by name, you know it by sound. It's the depressing sounding Russian folk tune that nearly everyone has heard at one time or another. The resounding thud that follows each "Happy Birthday!" is traditionally accompanied by a "HUHN"-like grunt. The sort of groaning grunt that workers lifting heavy loads might find natural.
Happy Birthday! (thud!) Happy Birthday! (thud!)
Now you've aged another year
Now you know that Death is near
Happy Birthday! (thud!) Happy Birthday! (thud!)
I especially verses 2a, 7, 12, 14a, 16 (those Vikings know how to party, don't they?!)

edit: linkified the title to point to a audio version of the tune. The text description of this track cracks me up:
Quote:

28 (bonus track) Janos Koos: Zug a Volga [Song of the Volga Boatmen]

A vocal version of the workers' movement standard (see also track 15), performed by the Hungarian Tom Jones (sort of) in 1973. The backing band clearly thinks it's Procol Harum.

mrnoodle 08-30-2005 12:32 PM

I don't know the tune they're referring to. Any links to a soundclip?

many happy returns, foot3

Clodfobble 08-30-2005 01:27 PM

Go here. There's a yellow button down on the right to listen to a song preview. It's a jazzy version and really not very dirge-like, but the tune is recognizable.

Clodfobble 08-30-2005 01:27 PM

Oh, and happy birthday footx3!

It's the "Yo-oh heave HO!" song.

You know. That one.

mrnoodle 08-30-2005 01:50 PM

ohhhh. THAT one.

staceyv 08-30-2005 11:22 PM

hmm, my birthday was last monday- I didn't get a happy birthday :(

lookout123 08-31-2005 12:48 AM

oh yes you did. it was right near the end of one of my dreams... uh, nevermind :blush:

footfootfoot 08-31-2005 05:23 AM

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes.
Happy belated birthday Stacyv, I didn't even know about this thread until the other day.

I'll read the entire vulgar boatman birthday song later this week.

I'm seriously wanting a job that allows me to surf teh net all day long. How do you guys do it?

Clodfobble 08-31-2005 09:43 PM

Happy birthday to you too, plthijinx. Dammit, I know too many people with birthdays in August... I had 4 real-life birthdays to celebrate just in the last two weeks.

That's too much real life, you need to cut back.

Work nights.

plthijinx 09-01-2005 12:26 PM

thanks y'all.

it's easy! get a job as an electrical designer, turn your monitor to an angle to where no one can see it and surf away with a drawing or spreadsheet pulled up in the background with easy access. :D
