"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungleāas old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Wishing you the happiest of birthdays!! Let's see, are you still a Capricorn, or did that change you to an Aquarius since they found the 13th sign?
Don't know what age you are, but it's gotta be younger than me and ah to be that age again. Have a wonderful day Gina!!!

Thank you all very much!! I really appreciate all the sweet messages from everyone.
I had a wonderful time with family on my birthday, and I spent today with my friends. I'll post a couple of photos soon, of the gifts my dad made for me...you'll like it because it's relevant to the forum.
TIS, I'm actually kind of curious, but so far have refused to look up my new sign - shouldn't we be able to rely on stuff like that not to change??
Bethie, 27!! Cool cake, Ice! And Kly, I second the request for a YouTube post.

Gina, my BB little sister! I was away with no internet access. Sorry I missed your birthday, but glad to hear it was a happy one. I had a special cake made for you, so you won't be mad at me for missing your special day.

I spent much of my free time this winter break watching The Sopranos, and tonight marked the end for me. I always wanted to watch the entire series, but I owe it to Mick for truly motivating me to actually do it. And my cousin Nick was kind enough to loan his DVDs, after having gone through the show himself just before. To avoid rambling on, I will just say that I'm so very proud to finally be a fan of the show, after having completely missed out on its original run...and I'm so glad to have been exposed to such incredible work. Can't wait to watch it all over again.
My attached photo is one of the gifts my dad gave me - a Sopranos sweatshirt. When I first saw it, I could swear it was store-bought and wondered if he'd ordered it online. As it turns out, he created a stencil and then used fabric paint to actually make this! Then he brought out a t-shirt that I couldn't doubt was something he'd created, because I was on it, along with my cousin - in the same style as Tony is shown. He included our family name, done in the Sopranos style, and our pictures were based on a photo he'd taken of us imitating Silvio.
