Happy Birthday, Virus!

August 31, 2010 in A Birthday With Shoes

Please steal a moment from your soul-deadening “careers,” random sex hook-ups, and abject self-loathing to join me in wishing our publisher, VirusWithShoes, a tremendously happy birthday. Besides providing us this space where we can meet, greet, and occasionally create things of value, Virus has been a good friend to so many of us.

Never expected, always welcome, Virus wanders amongst us like a spectral presence who leaves crumbs in the bed so you know he’s around.

With any luck, the 30 quid we raised was enough to entice Julianne Moore to serenade him this evening wearing only her pumps and a sly grin.

As a tribute to this lovely and supremely talented man, I present this lovely and supremely talented man:

    Happy Birthday Virus! You are admired so much for your talent and hard work on this site. Please come to San Francisco so we can have tea with you, too.

    Is Virus on a whirlwind birthday vacation? I don’t think I’ve seen him here in a while.

    @Blix: How do you know Rene Sance so well?

    @MamaP: Lucky guess. I mean, who doesn’t enjoy a birthday ritual spanking?

  • http://wordsmoker.com/help/members-3/renesance/ Rene Sance

    @Blix: That was a close call. Let’s keep it on the downlow from now on.

    @Rene: Ex sex industry workers are notoriously hard to fool (Rule #78b). Aside from that, I have no idea what you’re talking about.

    I am late on wishing Mr Shoes Happy Birthday here but that is because it is really a long process trying to send a box of rainbows and kitten whiskers to the UK….stupid custom forms.

    Three days later and you would have shared a birthday with Charlie Sheen.
