Happy Birthday Ned! A bit of birthday wisdom my grandmother passed down to me - Always remember that you are the master of your own pants!

― Kim, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

My thanks to all y'all. :-) You're too kind, and so far the day has gone very well indeed. :-)

Happy Birthday Mr R. May RATM never darken your ears again.

― RickyT, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

A good wish indeed! And since I forgot to respond to Nitsuh up there - - yesterday good food was Had by myself and friends for both lunch and dinner, and the pattern is so far repeating itself today! There's been fun gifts, record shopping (of course!) and other things to make it an enjoyable day all around. :-)

― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I join the crowd and wish you a happy one Ned. You are still partying over there in California, aren't you? So you are born the same day as Lou Reed. I missed the wishes for Lou's 60th. Strangely enough I only found German papers writing about him. Is Lou a persona non grata in the US? I hope not.

Take care. Alex.

― alex in mainhattan, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Why thank you Alex, that's quite kind especially considering some of my notes to you in the past! I do appreciate it. Lou's birthday here is sorta low key in comparison to Elvis'. ;-)

― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Happy birthday Ned!

― rosemary, Saturday, 2 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Many happy returns of the day to both Ned and Lou.

― Justyn Dillingham, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Happy happy, joy joy, to mr. ned.

NED. BIRTHDAY. HAPPY!!!!

Happy Ned Day!!!!!!!!!!

― toraneko, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Hippy hippy birthday Ned.

Oh, and Andy K.

― Graham, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

He is a hippy, isn't he?
Happy birthday, Ned; sorry it's a day late.

― Sean, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

hey ned- happy birthday!

jess didn't tell me, that's why i'm a day late.

― nancy b., Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Bad Jess, no biscuit. And *hippy* birthday is it? *cries* Like Tracer Hand I too am listening to the Boys right now, they weren't hippies, dammit!

Last night's meal was a treat -- went to an Afghan restaurant in Claremont, *damn* fine stuff. Combined with the massive prawns satay Friday night and Taco Mesa's lurvly potato/chorizo burrito yesterday at lunch, it's all been a munchworthy birthday weekend. :-) All the new good wishes help it further, though! Thanks!

― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

okay, okay, maybe i lied.

i kinda sorta slept through the birthday. jess is not to blame. eep!

― nancy b., Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I really do like "hippy birthday", but happy birthday works too. Sounds like you're having a good weekend (even if you're not turning 45 like we were initially led to believe!)

― geeta, Sunday, 3 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

happy belated birthday, mr. ned. glad you had such a nice b'day dinner.

― Tadeusz Suchodolski, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

"they don't object => they are hippies"

The crowd murmurs its appreciation as Ned scores his first half century. He stands before the wicket and nods acknowledgment.

A certain album cover was somehow juxtaposed with this thread on my phone and it seemed somehow apropos so I am adding it here:
