Just wondering what you guys could come up with. . . . . . .

1. Two well received hit albums.
2. Some quality time with his new wife (although he seems to have been a little quieter than usual over the last few weeks so maybe he's already had that present and can't wait to get out on the road again)
3. A full head of hair or some new hats.

That tribute CD, perchance?

World Peace

or something.

I vote for the tribute cd as well. Good call, PoP.

Critical and commercial succes at the same time for 'The Delivery Man'!!
Fingers crossed

Peer Recognition.
More than a historical footnote.
Cole Porter legacy status.

A time machine.

The master tapes to Kojak Variety.

A blow torch.

That would probably cover Christmas too.

A signed copy of On The Road Again
A Phil Collins box set
Liverpool to win The Premiership

He has no chance of any of them coming to fruition (sorry Plaything

).

Diana, some lacy items, and some Haagen Daz ice cream.

Hats! Boxes and boxes of hats!

A chance to celebrate, at long last, with fellow New Yorker and shared-birthday boy Al Roker (also 50 today).

Happy birthday to Elvis and Al!

To marry me.

Or was that what I wanted for my birthday . . .

Elvis has still got it with the younger ladies then!

What a geezer!

I know what he doesn't want - he definitely doesn't "want to vanish", like he did back in 1996.
He's in the mood to rock again.

Do you reckon he's out for a beer and a post-pub curry later followed by trying to get into a dodgy club?

Or is that just me on most of my birthdays?

Did I say birthdays? I meant Fridays.

You too Verb?

Is it just me or does Sponge Bob-whatever look more like EC than we and he would care to admit? It's the teeth, definitely the teeth.

selfmademug · Post by **selfmademug** » Wed Aug 25, 2004 2:31 pm

yes, and absorbant and yellow and porous is he! Okay, not really, but I had to say it...

or maybe the footwear. Spongebob usually wears black boots. Unless he's got a prom date.
