Or did I see it mis-reported?
I couldn't find your e-mail for some reason, Stan, so I wanted to stop by and wish you a good one! I hope you and your family did something special.
I'll see you at our annual meet-up in a couple of months, I hope.

Hi Jamie,
Welcome to the Boards! For those who may not remember, Jamie was my first editor at Dark Horse. From there, he went on to Oni Press. He now freelances, with a couple of novels to his credit.
Yes, today is my birthday. For a present, Editor Diana sent me the signature plates for UY 21 to sign.
Actually, I had a great lunch with my regular Friday lunch gang (they picked up my tab), and Sharon and I took the metro to China Town for dinner.

Hahahaha! That sounds like Diana. She probably thought it was a present, too.
Save that anecdote for the celebration of #200!

Happy belated Birthday!
That's a horrible gift, having to sign things on your birthday.

I didn't sign them on my birthday. I waited until the next day. They're all signed now, and I will send them back on Tuesday.
Actually, Editor Diana sent me a very nice birthday e-mail.

Thanks, Todd. I'll try to remember to keep my eye on here from time to time. But I'm getting old myself...and forgetful.
