Happy Birthday!

Best wishes from all of us at IJAD to cpMaia, whose birthday it be today. She's a fellow Alaska expat, so she's not all bad. In fact, if she were listed in a guide book, the summary would probably be "mostly bad".

In all seriousness, have a happy one! Or two? It's your birthday, why not make it a double?

It's great malicious fun to read a post that wishes someone a happy birthday while glancing periodically at the blog title under which the post is published.

And I wasn't even trying for irony. Bonus irony for everyone!!!

(Really, I changed the title of the blog like a week ago. The real question is to what does it refer?)

Thanks for the birthday wishes... I think. ;) There's still some Flying Dutchman Black Forest cake left in the parental fridge if you change your mind and decide to hit up the A-K for Christmas.

Blackout

The jury did not believe that Lil' Kim's sunglasses kept her from noticing that it was her friends who were shooting people outside the Hot 97 radio station. Apparently she misplaced the manual for her Joo Janta 200 Peril-Sensitive Sunglasses™.

"Hot 97 is the same station where the posses of 50 Cent and The Game traded bullets last month." Hot 97 is the new OK Corral! We may have just found a career for Latigo that would make good use of his skills. He just

How to write like a gossip columnist

Anyone can do it! Just keep in mind to never use your source's name, and always play up a celebrity's reaction to something using the following words: Blast Slam Fuming Here's an example: "Latigo Flint blasted reports that his guns do not actually fire live ammunition."
