With Enough Love and Support, This Twisted, Piteous Child

...could live a normal life.

Unfortunately, Bingley had neither. But I just love him to death...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BINGSTER !!

...anyway.

Happy Burfday to me!

Happy B-day pencil neck.

I AM soliciting donations for my "Save the Other Chi'drens Fund" so this tragedy doesn't happen again. Paypal, VISA, personal checks, small unmarked bills...all good.

"And put to good use" is our solemn promise to YOU, the donors.

Happy Birthday!!!

(and I see a resemblance to Ebola, don't I?)

Even as a precious innocent child I was quite the natty dresser.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Bingley!

Happy Birthday!

(and I see a resemblance to Ebola, don't I?)

Awesomely astute, darlin' L. AND, in the interest of humanity and good manners, I will add only that the resemblance is not simply superficial but plumbs the cosmic depths...

It's awful.

And what's even scarier Lisa is that your potential future Daughter-in-Law looks more like THS than she does either me or my Bride.

Posted by: Mr. Bingley at January 18, 2007 10:41 AM

So, when is your daughter planning to join the Marines, Mr. Bingley?

Posted by: The_Real_JeffS at January 18, 2007 10:54 AM

She's a darn good shot already, Jeff; it may be sooner than I think!

Happy Birthday, man - now, is that three cheesesteaks I owe you, or only two?

Posted by: Nightfly at January 18, 2007 11:05 AM

That's okay. Your future son-in-law looks like my brother and my husband had a baby. Genetics are weeeerd.

Posted by: Nightfly at January 18, 2007 11:07 AM

(Oh, cheesesteaks for la Bingslay, when I've been promised cremepuffs, like, FOREVER, you SHAMELESS SUCK-UP...)

Posted by: tree hugging sister at January 18, 2007 11:35 AM

There are lots of creampuffs waiting to be consumed in NJ; You just need to git up here!

'Fly, we seriously need to make another Geno's run soon.

Posted by: Mr. Bingley at January 18, 2007 11:39 AM

Happy, Happy, Mr Bingley.

Posted by: Rob at January 18, 2007 11:59 AM

Bings, I dig...

Sis, you won't believe me but the Ladybug can vouch - creme puffs travel poorly, even in coolers and special insulated bags. You are as roughly as far from Jacksonville as Mom is. Even at high warp the Discount Chariot can't make the trip inside of eight hours.

Now, if I prepared them on site, it would be a different matter.

Posted by: Nightfly at January 18, 2007 12:09 PM

THS,
I am so disappointed in you. Surely you could have found a more embarrassing photograph of the Bingster to post than that?!?!? What kind of big sister are you? The torture is supposed to continue throughout your adult life!

Happy birthday, Bingley.

Happy Birthday, Mr. B!

Posted by: Dave J at January 18, 2007 12:59 PM

::looks up:: I take offense, I was a blonde rat boy (granted, in a kilt). Lemme prove it. Anyway, happy birthday Uncle Hanta. =P

Thanks everyone! I will raise several glasses in your honor!

Posted by: Mr. Bingley at January 18, 2007 03:12 PM

Happy Birthday! And feel free to drop off a cheesesteak at my door.

Posted by: Kcruella at January 18, 2007 03:36 PM

Heck, we'll drag you along, cruella!

Posted by: Mr. Bingley at January 18, 2007 10:17 PM

Happy Birthday and many returns of the day!

( THS, in that photo, had you cut your brother off at the knees? I assume he got artifical limbs later in life cause he was much taller when I met him. )

PT - heheheh. Remember "Catalina Caper"? That's the Tommy Kirk on the beach pose.

"One Adam Twelve, see the man whose shins were stolen..."

Posted by: Nightfly at January 18, 2007 10:55 PM

Bingley had heros to emulate, PT. I had nothing to do with it and could only watch in horror.

And amazement.

I was like Little Richard in the GEICO commercial "Help me! Won't somebody please help me?!""

'Fly - Good memory! "They took my [shins!] They … Oh, no, wait, they’re still here."
