It is our dear, dear, dear friend Karen's Birthday tomorow (Wednesday) so we baked a cake in her honor - Paul made me do all the work, though. Please join us in wishing her the best on her special day...

You are very special,
and you deserve the best.
We wish you a wonderful life,
filled with love and happiness.
We hope others bring you joy,
just as you've brought joy to us,
then you can weather any storm
and be all you want to be.


Robert

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined.

Karen - you are the sweetest thing and you take such good care of us! I hope your birthday brings joy and laughter and very good memories! I can't say it any better than Robert did and heaven knows I can't bake a better cake so I won't even try. Enjoy your day. I am so glad I had the chance to sail with you on 007 and hope to have a chance to sail with you again!

PS: Andrea you are a hoot!

Robert, what a nice cake and sweet sentiment! Everyone else, you crack me up!! I love all the pictures and cakes, they made me giggle!!

I hate to disappoint everyone but no new shoes unless you count the sparkly flip flops I ordered yesterday :)

The best present I can think of is my sweet LCT family and how much I am glad that I have had the opportunity to spend time with most of you. I guess for my birthday wish, I hope for the chance to meet all of you some day! :hug: Next month, I will have the chance to do just that!


Karen

Time to put on those dancin' shoes!
Problem is which pair???!!!
TRY THEM ALL!!!! It's your birthday!

Enjoy!
Live long and prosper.

Doug (yes, I am doing the spilt finger thing - just for you!)
-----
Doctor, What is the reason to celebrate the anniversary of one's birth?

Exactly, Spock! To celebrate...no more and no less!

To celebrate the passing of another year? Every year? The good ones as well as the less than good ones, if I may be kind?

Yes, my green blooded friend. Every year we are on this planet is a blessing. It is a chance to meet new friends and, well, just be friendly.

Doctor, I should point out that we are not on any planet for any amount of time.

Damn it, man! Don't you get it? We are on a ship. We move around. We meet people. We make friends.

Frankly, Doctor, beyond sub-space communications there is very little way in the way to stay in contact with these new friends until the next time our ship and they meet. Your thoughts are not logical.

Then, set your pointy ears to sub-space, because we DO make friends and I don't want to ever lose them.

Doctor, I would suggest, then, that you find someone to monitor this growing list of your friends because I believe that your duties in sick bay do take up a great deal of your time.

My dear Mr Spock... I do believe that I have found just that person.

I am sure that the Captain will be pleased. Thank you, Doctor.

Grumble, grumble. I will let the Captain know!!

------------

And that, dear friends, is how Karen came to be our go to gal here on LCT!

& you all thought that it was Nagaire when all along it was...well, you know
