It’s that time of year again. That time you admit to being another year older.

For me it’s the time I have to make my own birthday cake ;-( We have the same birthday, which has its perks such as being virtually impossible to forget, but I do sometimes feel it’s more than a little strange writing “Happy Birthday Sulseob and Me” though I went with Happy Birthday Sulseob and Allen this time for some strange reason.

Tried something a little different this time with the icing. All chocolate, cake too. You can do this with chocolate icing and use it for the writing as well though it doesn’t stand out the way colored icing does. It still makes a nice looking cake.

Tasted pretty good too

Okay, so I’m not always on time, but hey, this time (at least) it’s not (entirely) my fault!

Jim Kukral, a friend, and a good guy, sings Happy Birthday to anyone who asks, records it even in video, very nice thing to do, so I wanted to do that for him as he’s now approaching middle age kicking and screaming.

So, I set things up real quick, knock off a video, throw in a little something aimed just at him, drag it into my computer, open up YouTube and get hit with a “we’re doing maintenance” (at least I’m not a YouTube Junkie going nuts, but still…)

So, video is done, and is loading to my site now, but still can’t display it just yet.

It’s coming though, and may well be worth the wait, or not, hehheh.

Anyway, Happy Birthday, Jim!

For now, maybe this link will work… edit, here’s the YouTube version.

This is on the deck right outside my home office. Yes, that’s my ‘good’ clothes for looking like the professional I am.

This was shot using my digital camera (Sony Cybershot). Just set it on my mini tripod, aimed it, and did it. There’s a slight glare from the sun off to my left, but hopefully the rest of the video is clear enough.

I’ll switch to a lighter/faster loading version asap, but for now YT is still doing maintenance and I don’t have the time to rework/edit this to make it smaller.
