Is your birthday the 21st, Michael? If so, it is the same as Joseph Stalin, Heinrich Böll and the best man at my wedding.

No, it's the 15th; Bill of Rights day.

Ha! I couldn't work out from the start of the thread whether this was premature or not. Another untimely HB from me too then.

You have the same birthday as two great piano players: Eddie Palmieri, who just turned 73, and Barry Harris, who just turned 80.

Considering their ages, it is I who have theirs.

To a man of M. White's stature, high position and low angle of incidence, birthdays are mere bagatelles, whimsical calendrical spokeshavings which mean nothing - apart from providing an occasion for witty repartee with the doorman and an extra large tip for the hat check girl, a la Frank Sinatra.

Ned's choice of Gillingham may just have dear Michael pipped, I feel. At least Leeds have a certain decadence to them these days.

Gills were very much an up and coming team in the late 90's

I did a GIS on "yorkshire whites" and this was the first result:

You don't look a day over five weeks.

I thought I'd revive this early and beat the rush. I'm sure the departed Mr. White won't mind.

He was an ornament to ILX. At least that is how I interpreted the small wire loop on top of his head.

He was super nice to us that one time we came to SF and actually managed a FAP.

According to Google, whose word is law in such matters, this thread continues to be the only place on the world wide web containing all three words: whimsical calendrical spokeshavings.

Spokeshavings?!
