Happy birthday Jon!

....your welcome for any snow you have, since it hits London about half an hour before it gets to you, so you only get what is leftover. ;)

Have a great day!

Actually, A-teens is quite good IMO. I like the original ABBA of course, but A-teens made a good job re-making the original songs.

Personal preference I guess. The clips I listened to made me pull out my ABBA playlist and purge the horror from my ears. :lol:

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes guys!

I didn't mean to start a flamewar over my choice of A*Teens on my list. I'm a big ABBA fan, and some of their covers I've heard don't sound too bad to me. I'd have some ABBA albums on there but I already have most of their catalog.

Anyway, my birthday was quite eventful. I woke up, dug myself out of about 3 inches of snow (That's an average... my driveway was alright except the part by the road where the nice snowplows had dumped 6 or so inches). I had some help from my snowblower, but had to hack away manually at some of the high points. Then, I checked the status on my birthday gift to myself (A 60 GB iPod) and found that, while UPS swore they'd re-deliver, it was actually held at the hub 30 miles away. I had to do some banking and go to the post office to pick up a package, so I set out. Found that USPS had directed me to the wrong post office, finally made it to UPS, ventured to the correct post office, then finally got home to find that my laptop now hated iTunes and would crash upon loading it! Finally got that squared away late last night, and now I'm ALMOST ready to enjoy my new toy.

Otherwise, it was a lovely day. Here's the rundown of the loot I got in case anyone is interested:

1. Framed picture for my office
2. Book of poetry
3. t-shirts
4. outdoor bird feeder
5. DVDs
6. A bunch of stuff from the HomestarRunner.com Store, including a Coach Z shirt and a Kick The Cheat*
7. iPod

* - purchased for myself to celebrate surviving another year of graduate school.

Hope everyone had a good day on my birthday, and that we're all ready for the quickly-arriving holidays!
