[LMB] Birthday Tixie

[Dawn Benton]

Your assistant, assistant Birthday Tixie here.

I am getting this notice out early because one of the recipients is already 
in tomorrow if I am remembering correctly how time zones work.

Anyway, September 12th is a banner day for the list.  We have three List 
members who are celebrating their birthdays.

First the let me wish a happy 58th birthday to our very own Antipodean 
Birthday Tixie, Beatrice McKeown.  Huzzah!  Beatrice, I hope your birthday 
is filled with all the good things your heart desires, good food, friends, 
music, books, weather and whatever it will take to make a perfect birthday. 
Please encourage small dog and even smaller dog to do their special Tixie 
Dust act.  Unfortunately, I was unable to contact them prior to the event to 
arrange the Tixie Dust.

Next is a relatively new member, Ian "Widdy" Riddell.  The 12th is Widdy's 
39th birthday, which is a very fine age.  Some of the few things I know 
about Widdy is that he is a fan of our own Lois McMaster Bujold, Steve 
Brust, Ursula K. LeGuin and presumably many other authors.  Widdy, I hope 
your birthday is filled with all the good things it can hold.

Last but not least is a relative newcomer, Dr. Nightfall aka Matthew 
Harrison.  I don't know how old Dr. Nightfall is going to be, because he 
shyly did not provide a birth year.  Dr. Nightfall, I want to wish you the 
very best for your birthday.  May your natal day be full of all the 
pleasures it can hold.

A rousing Happy Birthday to our three Birthday Listies.
