This year, we got you a government shutdown and an impending default crisis. I hope you like them!

Is this the thread where we discus tone arguments vis. the concept of post-feminism? Nope? Great! Happy birthday, dude -- I hope it's a mod-crisis free one & that you do something nuts like spend it on a bike out of cell-phone & internet range.

On behalf of the Estate of Mildred and Patty Hill and Warner/Chappel Music who continue to demand royalties of up to 5000$ a day for said performances in film, television, radio, anywhere open to the public, or even among a group where a substantial number of those in attendance are not family or friends of whoever is performing the song and on behalf of Marty Sheinbaum to whom such things as intellectual property, droit moral, fair use, and royalty structure meant a great deal, here's a bunch of animals to sing you a song.

Are there donations for this? If we raise $100 for charity can you ban Matt for a day? Let's make this work.
