[dewdman42]

ah..to be young again...

[dancase]

Nicole, 34 is a great age to be. Old enough to start understanding things and gaining in real wisdom, young enough to change directions as a result. Enjoy it! Happy Birthday!

Nicole, hereÕs hoping your birthday is filled with joy in the love of your family and friends. Maybe we can all chip in and give Nicole a GPO T shirt. No, IÕm not going to suggest that she model it like Allen did. I didnÕt say that. :D

Have a great birthday Nicole.

Happy birthday, youngster - you haven't reached the halfway point yet, you're just getting started. Musically, it will only get better, now that you've had time to learn and practice and experience life so you can understand the great themes and all that good stuff.

Youngster??? How old are most of you? lol. Im feeling pretty old today, I dont know why. I dont feel any different then I did when I was in my 20s. I guess its just something we all face. Anyway thank you all.

[Alan Lastufka]

Perhaps a sleek new GPO T-Shirt will bring back that 20-something feeling! :)Email gary@harps.com with your size and contact info (smallest we had made were Mediums)...

Nicole,
I thought you might like this:
Top Ten Reasons Why The Computer Industry Is Finally Opening Up To Women

1. It's easier for a woman to "turn on" a computer

2. Women don't have motherboard fixations.

3. Women are much better at FDISK-ing a hard drive

4. When lost on the Internet, women are willing to ask for directions.

5. Women can communicate gossip and rumors quicker than the fastest modem.

6. Only women (I think) can marry Bill Gates.

7. Women see a 14 inch monitor they think it's a 14 incher and not a 20.

8. Women have bigger SMART drives.

9. Women don't think with their joysticks.

10. Women actually read installation manuals.:D

Now hurry, I baked you a cake and if you don't get here by 5pm EST, we'll start without you. :eek:

This poster boy is old enough to be your father, and if I were IÕd be pushing you into a music career just like your mother. :D

See, now I get to wish you a happy birthday twice.

[music man]

[DPDAN]

Happy birthday, Nicole - you're fast catching me up!! ;)

Happy birthday from Chin@blu(e)!

My partner (Ines) is also 34 years old, and I like her more every day.

Hope this can help :-)

[Haydn]

Get well soon!!! :eek: Oops, I mean Happy Birthday!!!

[trentpmcd]

"With great reluctance" sounds like you are about to announce you sold your piano or gave up gpo. Maybe that your husband doesn’t want you hanging out with a bunch of guys on the Internet and you will have to stop posting. But that you turned 34? What, are you reluctant to brag about how young you are? Actually, I’m not that much older and feel younger every day. In these few years since I was 33 I have traveled more, seen more, done more and lived more than in my first 33 years.

Happy birthday!

Great track! reminds me of Wendy Carlos' Pomp and Circumstance (that was a bit more ambitious, tho'.)

So again HBTY, Nicole. And watch out for those wandering concertinas (I wonder, is there a concertike to accompany the concertina?

Nice to be so young Nicole! Yes, 34 is young but you don't realise it for another 20yrs or so!

Have a happy day and let's hope you have many more of them

My wife has the same birthday as you, but she's one year younger.

34? You're just getting started! I turned 40 in Feb.

Happy composing to You!
