"It is a mistake to regard age as a downhill grade toward dissolution. The reverse is true. As one grows older, one climbs with surprising strides."
- George Sand
Thanks for your all your Surprising Strides - past, present & future - that keep us entertained & provoked.
I'm adding my birthday wishes here, too, 'cause I think this is the more straight-forward (and date-appropriate) thread...

Joss, Happy Birthday.
You've done so much for so many people, but I can only speak for myself. I live with your creations every day. They are like family to me. I owe you so much.
Thank you.

Hope you get to relax and celebrate today with your loved ones, and that your year is productive and rewarding. [That "productive" part is actually
partlymostly a selfish wish on my part.]jcs | June 23, 04:57 CET

You're the reason I'm writing a spec script at this very moment (and, totally by coincidence, it's a Dollhouse spec). So thanks for showing me what I wanna do with my life and stuff.

May all your dry cleaning return to you spotless.
May your creative visions continue to challenge
and inspire you, may you continue to have support
to make those visions tangible.
Thanks for the stories.

"Oz: We should figure out what kinda deal this is. I mean, is it a-a gathering, a shindig or a hootenanny?
Cordelia: What's the difference?
Oz: Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage; and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny."

No other show has inspired me to write as much as "Buffy" has.
Keep plugging away, Your Jossiness, and we, your loyal subjects, shall follow your exploits.
"There are places I remember, all my life, though some have changed.
Some forever, not for better.
Some have gone and some remain.
All these places have their moments, with lovers and friends I still can recall.
Some are dead, and some are living.
In my life I've loved them all.
But of all these friends and lovers there is no one compares with you.
And these memories lose their meaning when I think of love as something new.
Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before, I know I'll often stop and think about them.
In my life I love you more.
(instrumental bridge)
Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before, I know I'll often stop and think about them.
In my life I love you more.
In my life...I love you more."

Your shows have truly made a huge impact on my life and I will forever be grateful for it. I hope you had a great day celebrating your b-day and I hope you continue to prosper in tv, film, comics, or anything else you set out to do in the future.
