ronibert, although it's not yet your birthday in germany, it IS your birthday here in NZ ---- so... HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favourite german ;)

and since it is officially the beginning of your worldwide birthday celebrations, it's perfectly ok for you to start drinking right now. i'll be sure to have a drink for you tomorrow (is vodka ok??).

[roni]

Thank you, my lovely! You're too sweet!
I'll have a drink to you now! - and then another one...
Vodka is fine. A pure drug without any lie.
Love you, ruby! HugHugHug!

Will it be the first wedding of two Buk-Net members ?
Invite her to our next symposium in Andernach and let's get married in Buks
birthplace. The last time we stay there you felt down on your knees to pray him (really no joke ! ).
Now you have to fall on your knees for HER.
By the way congrats for your birthday buddy !

 

[roni]

thanks for your congrats, Petey!
There won't be a wedding though - she's taken already by another of our members.
You're right: At Buk's birthplace, I use to fall on my knees to worship the old man.

[slimedog]

Yes it's true, Ruby and I were married by an Elvis Presley impersonator in Las Vegas, I was already married but by recently converting to Mormonism I'm allowed to have several wives.

Happy Birthday, Roni, whether it's today, tomorrow or yesterday.

I don't believe your her favorite German, though, that would have to go to Charles B.

 

[justine]

I don't believe your her favorite German, though, that would have to go to Charles B.

no way - Buk can only be second place to roni.

[sorry Buk.]

 

[roni]

Wow! thanks bongo, Johannes, hooch and slime! You give me a birthday-celebration here, like I never had.
And again thanks to ruby for her kind words which I don't deserve.

 

[slimedog]

My pleasure, Roni, and may I thank you and the German people for giving us our best writer and more importanly for inventing Jagermeister.

 

[roni]

And don't forget Albert Einstein, Ludwig van B., Bruce Willis and Levi Strauss (who was born 2 miles from where I was raised up).

 

[slimedog]

True, but they don't stand in comparison to Bukowski and Jagermeister.

 

[roni]

nope! If i'd DO have to chose, All my honor goes to Einstein !
But I do see the point in having Buk right Next to him only in another subject.
(anyway, since this isn't the place to discuss field-theory, I'd admit, Bukowski is THE MAN all right!)

 

[slimedog]

Great philosophers from Germany, too, like Schopenhaur and Neitsche.

 

[ROC]

Nietzsche - one of the greatest minds of all time - one of the hardest names to spell. :(

 

[bogthing]

Day Late And A Dollar Short-

"Happy Belated Birthday, hope it was fun-

Happy Belated Birthday, hope you got some-

Onions and Pickles-

Gunpowder and Rum"

 

[roni]

thanks bogthing. Yes, lots of gunpowder and Rum.

 

[Ninjerk]

Nietzsche - one of the greatest minds of all time - one of the hardest names to spell. :(

And one of the hardest names to agree on a pronunciation of.

 

[ROC]

Really?
I thought you simply yelled "Niet", like a Russian "No", then spat as hard as you could.
No?

 

[roni]

And one of the hardest names to agree on a pronunciation of.

It ain't hard. Try:
NEE - like in "Neeli" or "knee", then
CHE - like in "check" or "chess".

And there you have it!

 

[ROC]

Ah, those crazy germanians!

 

[roni]

The name 'Nietzsche' comes from Polish roots I think.
They have even crazier names: A friend of mine has the (Polish rooted) surname 'Niemczyk'! You pronounce that like "Neem-check". Funny, eh?

 

[Ninjerk]

No?

Nyet.

I've had at least three people tell me (matter of factly, mind you) how to pronounce his name. Sartre, too.

 

[justine]

happy birthday roni!!

 

[Ponder]

Hey you German cat, have a good one tonight
or have you already been drinking?
If so- I hope it's good cold German white wine.
Happy birthday.

 

[marina del rey]

Happy birthday roni - hope it's a great one.

 

[Johannes]

Cheers, roni! Alles Gute!

 

[Black Swan]

Happy birthday Roni,
It is after 9 pm in Germany.
I hope you are having fun. Cheers!

 

[hoochmonkey9]

HEY!

happy birthday!

 

[mjp]

Will it be the first wedding of two Buk-Net members?

Well - yes and no...ha.

Happy Roniday.

 

[Gerard K H Love]

Happy Birthday! I know you are drinking and probably wine. Enjoy the whole week. Have a Happy Birth week.

 

[roni]
