  2. Quite the birthday celebration indeed. Has he ever gotten THIS much attention? Unreal but certainly warranted.

  3. I was very, very surprised to see the Doodle last night. I literally shrieked, lol.

    I think.. today, to celebrate his birthday (and for my own amusement), I'll bound my brother in rope and as many cuffs as I can get my hands on.. they'll have to be the lousy store-bought ones and - oh! it's a shame we don't have any crates.. Happy Birthday, Houdini! (:
