Happy Birthday to Maraudin' Iron Pyrite Mike!
Like I said
afore, how very appropriate that this seemingly normal man was
born on April 1, also known as April Fool's Day. An even better indication of
Mike's inherent foolishness is the fact that he has worked for us FOR FREE,
peddling our CDs and tapes at the Maryland Renaissance Festival and a lot of
other gigs. We should be grateful for such selfless work and dedication, but
we're rude and horrible people. Plus, we hear he suddenly wised up and decided to work for actual
money at the White Hart during this year's fest. So, thanks for nothing, Mike!
Oh, I was just kidding. Here, have this lovely bottle of yummy, aged (like you!)
single-malt scotch.
No wait, don't guzzle it yet! We're going to sing the birthday song for you
and you'll drink everytime we sing "you." Ready?
Happy birthday to Mike,
Happy birthday to Mike,
Happy birthday to our really good pal Miiiiiiike,
Happy birthday to Mike!
Well, hell, if you're not going to drink it, you may as well share it... how about a nip offa that bottle, old chum?
Happy birthday, you fool. Happy birthday, you fool. Happy birthday,
happy birthday... happy birthday you fool!
(That's three drinks, Mike -- get on the stick)
