I would guess with almost 20K members in this virtual zoo, most of you don't know MrsK, our Birthday Fairy. That's ok. Let me enlighten you. She doesn't own a 914. In fact I don't think she has ever owned a 914. I suspect she has ridden in a 914 a few times though because her best friend when he was alive was a guy named Howard that owned a couple very nice 914's.
Lisa is her name, and she is a true sweetheart. She used to come to all the Southern California events, particularly NARP events when Howard was alive. Then, Howard died rather suddenly of a brain aneurysm. You'd have loved Howard. He was a true character. In memory of Howard, Lisa became our Birthday Fairy. She puts a fair amount of time into it. She researches to see if a member is even active. If they are active, she sends them an email greeting them on their birthday in addition to posting her Birthday Fairy Report for everyday we have members with birthdays. When I take over for her so she can have a weekend with her husband, I don't put near that kind of effort into it. You just get the Faux Birthday Fairy Report. My apologies. I have a request. Because of the love Lisa showers on us in memory of her friend and our 914 brother Howard, I'd like to see her Birthday Fairy Report get WAY more responses. We should show her the love she shows us. There are a core group of 6-12 of us who always respond but considering her love for this scoundrel lot, it isn't enough. Give it a minute and greet our Birthday brothers and sisters every day to show Lisa you care about her too. Thanks, Rob (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Thanx for the back story Rob, I never knew it, nor Howard.
I think it's only good manners to thank someone, & I always have tried to do so with her, even though I'm not part of the core .... errrr hard core .... here. Cheers to both Lisa & Our Faux Fairy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
