Too bad Tuttlefest didn't work out this year. It would have been way cool to celebrate your birthday over quality beer.

Hope that these greetings find you happy, healthy, and generally well-adjusted. I suspect that they will, as you have been a quality person around these parts for many years now. Thanks for your many contributions, your good nature, and your ability to help us see through BS.

I always enjoy talking with you, and I look forward to our next meet-up. Cheers!

Why, ain't nothin' but cheers and beers come from Puyallup.

Happy Birthday, Tom!

Doc, thats mighty eloquent for 9 in the am!

Happy B'day Tom.

Tom, I wish you the happiest of birthdays today!! Your wisdom and eloquence provide a nice counterpoint to the rest of us knuckleheads that seem to post whatever we feel like saying. Whether it's on topic or not. Or, in good taste or not. Or, if it makes sense or not. . .

. . .uh, what's everyone looking at. . .

I'm at work, so, Tom, I raise my lukwarm styrofoam cup of coffee in a toast for you on your birthday. Cheers! *slurp*

Super Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Tom! Good wishes to a great guy, I hope you and your family are able to enjoy this special day.

Happy birthday, Tom! I probably won't have a beer later in your honor, but the next time I do, it'll be for you.

Tom, I hope your day is full of people kissing your butt.

Happy B-Day!

Please make sure you wipe thoroughly!!

Happy Birthday Tom.

I can't believe that jerk hasn't bothered to stop by and check on his birthday wishes yet. Where are his priorities??

Have a great day Tommy.....

Hey Tom!!!

May your day be filled with stout's, ales, lagers and pilsners. But not too many pilsners. Otherwise, the Stouts, will get angry and crush the weak and watered down pilsners.

We don't want to see any beers get hurt on your birthday.

Happy birthday to an all around adequate (OK, GREAT) guy, and beer aficionado!

Gosh, you guys are great. This whole thread really means a lot to me. Thank you very much.

I'll give away my age to share a short personal story. The day I was born was also the day of Dr. King's famous speech in Washington DC. That coincidence led me to learn more about Dr. King and his work at a relatively young age. I attribute his eloquence, ideals and perseverance for helping me embrace social justice to a greater and more effective degree than I otherwise might have considering my safe, homogeneous, suburban upbringing. My commitment to diversity - while continuing to be filled with painful learning - has led me to a much happier life.

So, here's to a happy coincidence and America's ongoing dreams.

I took the day off Emily had to be at school at 7:30 to perform her duties as a Tyee Team Leader (9th graders helping the 7th graders not get stuffed into lockers on registration day or some such). So, no sleeping in for me, but I was really grateful to have the opportunity to take her to school. Life's simple pleasures.

Julie made me Joe's Special for breakfast (ground beef, spinach, onions, eggs, parmesan). Yummm.

There will be apple pie later.

Several beers will be harmed throughout the day.

You - my friends - are dear to me, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to think of me today.

Cheers!

Enjoy your Birthday Tom! I'll hoist a beer or two later in your honor.
Cheers,
Shaun

Happy Birthday Double T's.

How big would his manboobs have to be to be double Ts? The mind boggles.

Does your dirty mind always gravitate toward squishy objects that come in pairs?

YES!!!

Oh, you were asking JP. . .

What is ... a rhetorical question?

I'll take Literary Devices for $1200, Alex.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Thomas, cheers to you buddy!

Hey man, Happy BeerDay

I mean Birthday...

...another HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Tom!!
I hope you've had a great day!

Tom

Happy Birthday, Tom!

Yet, another...........Happy Birthday!

OK, there's a glass of TJ's 2007 waved in your general direction, Tom!

Happy Birthday.

A 2007 TJ in a beer glass? How does that work?
Best mental picture I can do is a TJ in a river of cold, foamy, frothy beer.

Mmmmmmhhh, rollover in giant river of beer.

He's frantically trying to hook up the straw attachment to the front of his Jeep.

Now we know what's wrong with Sean: he drinks beer through a straw.

Not only that, it's curly, too. And changes color when cold.

Tom - Happy B-Day!!!!

Quaff a couple of lagers and enjoy, my friend!!!

While, like Ray, I'm late to this birthday party. The difference is I'm aware of my tardiness while Ray is out to lunch (What can you expect from someone that old. ) .

Happy LATE Birthday to one of the nicest guys on the internet.... TomTuttle.

Tom, same from me my friend. Chiming in incredibly late to this thread, but a heartfelt "happy birthday" nevertheless. Hope you had a good one!

Jason

Thank you, again, my friends. I've grown quite fond of "birthday fest", so your greetings simply perpetuate my joy.

In the same way some people are kept on life support?

Sorry I missed this, Tom...

I've been neglectful in my forum checking this summer.

Happy Belated one!

Bren R.

Hey Tom! Happy belated birthday wishes! See what happens when you only check in 1x/week?!?! Really sorry I missed the day. And I owe you a response to your last message, too.

Enjoy!
