  4. Brother,
    I have seen you around, but more importantly have heard the accolades. I arrived at the conclusion that it was high time to cease and desist denying myself of the well spring of intellect flowing freely from this corner of the blogosphere. The substance certainly lives up to the hype.

    Happy birth anniversary.

  17. Happy Birthday. I never thought your novels would be my kind of reading, but in honor of your birthday, I will get A Matter of Attention. After reading your blog for a few weeks, I'm inclined to think that reading one of your books might turn out to be a pleasant surprise for me.

    Enjoy your Birthday!

  21. Well look at me remembering to get my fanny over here on 12/22 to wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY actually ON your birthday!! Hmmm, I'm thinking that maybe folks in our "age range" aren't losing as many brain cells as we thought. ;)

    I hope that you truly enjoy your special day, Torrance, and that you realize YOU are actually the one giving out gifts to your readers with all the interesting posts you share with us...thank you!

    PS SOOOO glad you don't promote Amazon for purchases, but of course my reasons are a tad different. ;) (http://www.hsus.org/acf/news/pressrel/
