A bunch more birthdays, with menagerie and barbarian chorus

[damont]

The beginning of October brings about the birthdays of four more friends, plus my fraternity. So, in order of birthday occurrence, Happy Birthday to jastaelf, house_elf, marklrose, stealthcomic, and phimualpha!

Hippo birdie two ewes (ya sure I shouldn't be spelling that "youse"?)
Hippo birdie two ewes
Hippo birdie deer ewes,
Hippo birdie two ewes!

And for my first encore, here's a short excerpt of a song you probably know all too well... (cues barbarian chorus)

Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)
Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)

Doom and gloom and dark despair
People dying ev'rywhere

On your Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)
Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)

Cities burning in your wake
Like the candles on your cake

Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)
Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)

This one lesson you must learn:
FIRST you pillage, THEN you burn!

Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)
Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)

Mortal vermin cringe in fear
Thank God it's only once a year

Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)
Happy Birth-DAY! (*STOMP*)

When you've reached this age, you know
That the mind is... (er, I forget how this verse ends... gimme a minute, it'll come to me, I'm sure...)
