Think I'll page through the Khukuri FAQ again for the fiftieth time in your honor. It never fails to show me something I didn't know before. What a treasure!

Happy birthday!

Happy B-day, Howard. I've never thanked you for the FAQs site, so I'll avail myself of the opportunity. It's a fantastic addition to the content available on the Web.

Hope you have a very happy one. I am hoping that I can find the time some of these days to go through the FAQ site pretty thoroughly. There has got to be a mountain of information that I sure want to go through.

Enjoy your birthday and try not to feel too old.

:) :p :D
 
Hmphff!!!!
Of all days I didn't pay any attention.:rolleyes:

Hope you had a goot un Howard and that the coming year is 10 times better And Happier than the last one was bad!!!!:D
 
Better late then never... All the best Howard! And, if (as it seems) you're related to Wiliam Wallace of Scotland, wish you twice as many, he's the man I honore above all:)
 
Thanks, y'all.

Sharri, I don't believe William Wallace had any children prior to his torture and execution by the British. I don't know how the tangled bloodlines from the past go. We may share some genes, maybe not.

I do hope and pray that some of the spirit that shone so brightly in him can also come through me.

Here is Burns' old poem about that spirit that both you and I appreciate.

Scots wha hae wi Wallace bled
Scots wham Bruce has aften led
Walcome tae yer gory bed
Or tae victorie
Nou's the day an nou's the hour
See the front o battle lour
See approach proud Edward's pouer
Chains an slaverie!

Wha wad be a traitor knave?
Wha wad fill a couard's grave?
Wha sae base as be a slave?
Lat him turn an flee
Wha for Scotlan's king an law
Freedom's sword wad strangly draw
Freeman staun or freeman faa
Lat him follow me!

By oppression's woes an pains
By our bairns in servile chains
We wad drain our dearest veins
Bit they sall be free
Lay the proud usurper low
Tyrants faa in every foe
Libertie's in every blow
Lat us dae or dee!
