Every time. I don't think I've ever hosted a party with a theme, but I know what it's like when beach parties go wrong...sand is not my friend...<BR/><BR/>That's not right, if I ever see Will Smith, or more to the point Harry Connick Jr I'm going to make them fess up! And if I could remember which Bill was president in the film...<BR/><BR/>B is fair enough - but I'm not good with films or film references. So I went with Air Supply...see, music I'm good with. I will edit this post later though with a ColFar reference (for extra credit).Miles McClaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10335102965842725449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-85321410550502587842008-09-15T21:59:00.000-07:002008-09-15T21:59:00.000-07:00B+ - could have tied in the current Bruges film; o...B+ - could have tied in the current Bruges film; or a gratuitous Colin Farrell reference, but sound stuff...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-35081802847818103772008-09-15T19:22:00.000-07:002008-09-15T19:22:00.000-07:00Actually your tree-friend might have been right.

And although it sat in a remote mining town school library for all those years, somehow... a movie came out called 'Independence Day'<BR/><BR/>A coincidence?

I just wanted to stop by and say that a bit of 'Blue Steel' never hurt any portrait of mine (and probably even saved a few from total ruin), so keep practicing! Also, I can't recall what I did on my 21st, which is probably just as well, if not a little bit sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-17832525766086561252008-09-15T03:16:00.000-07:002008-09-15T03:16:00.000-07:00Don't feel sad, the 18th and 30th made up for the ...Don't feel sad, the 18th and 30th made up for the 21st - maybe for my 31st I'll get a paragraph maker! I haven't listened to Triple J since the glory days of "What's In Ya Bin" though...do they play Miley Cyrus?<BR/><BR/>A baby elephant? Alyson? Are you sure? What was I doing?

My 21st had a baby elephant!<BR/><BR/>I am worried about your use of an Air Supply based pun though - you can crank out all the Stereolab references you can, but Air Supply is noted!<BR/><BR/>AlysonThePopGirlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04503213461014965691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3339738475389037569.post-31156564594515308892008-09-15T02:13:00.000-07:002008-09-15T02:13:00.000-07:00Awww . .I feel sad for you now.

My 21st sucked as well if it's any consolation. <BR/>"I'd probably take another seven paragraphs to explain it," Miles, you don't know what a paragraph is! OK ok I'll lay off. Seriously though, enjoy birthday's while you can. party hard. No fun when your knees creak and your knees just can't pogo any more! And I'm very concerned about your Miley Cyrus addiction . .you need a good dose of Triple J!Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.com
