Anniversary, With Vampires

As last year, this is an April Fool's Free Zone*. Please respect this.

Today is the Thirty-First Anniversary of the merging of the Miller and Lee households, much to the consternation of the then-resident cats.

SFRevu has nice things to say about Longeye

And now, to the vampires!

*...it's not that I don't have a sense of humor (which I've been told); I have a lively, if occasionally inappropriate, sense of humor. It's because April Fool's Day has, IMNSHO, become a forum for abusive behavior couched as "jokes," which allows the perpetrator to take and hold the dubious moral high ground of "You can't take a joke!"

Happy anniversary! And here's hoping the vampires don't observe Tomfoolery Day.

Happy Anniversary. Many more to come.


In defense of the fools, I offer you Feste, from Twelfth Night. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp0sjXNTBJ0

I honour the day in appreciation for Shakespeare's fools, who have delighted me since first I met them in high school English class.

If only all fools were such

Shakespeare's wit from Ben Kingley's mouth is leagues beyond the great bulk of foolery to be found these days, sadly. "Well, God give them wisdom that have it; and those that are fools, let them use their talents."

Happy anniversary!

How funny. A college friend of mine also got married on April 1. That's cool. :)

Happy Anniversary!

for which, I offer to your cats a childhood favorite that I just found on gutenberg:
"The Rubaiyat of A Persian Kitten"
by Oliver Herford 1904

Yays for anniversaries, and may there be many more fruitful years of collaboration and resigned cats ahead!

April First is also my wedding anniversary, so I am particularly delighted to hear I share it with one of my favorite writing teams. It almost makes up for the fact that after two decades, I still run into clever Dicks who think that they are the first to make the obvious jokes...

anniversary

And a very happy anniversary. My husband and I are sort of celebrating our 31st also (no lie!), except, well, it is blizzarding. sigh. Dinner tomorrow .
How time does fly, eh?
Have a nice evening!

Which leads to "I wouldn't *dream* of taking it. You can keep it all for yourself!"

Oh, and may the Miller and Lee household long endure.
