  1. BEN Birthday Wish #2

    Player Chronicle -- Posted on May 19 2009

    It's that day again, and in about an hour (1:51pm) I can call today my 27th birthday! I reached back in time and pulled my birthday Chronicle from last year and had a good laugh, so I'll share that first...

    "As I look ahead to the rest of 2008 and into 2009, I suppose I should make a birthday wish...
    As I close my eyes like a 5 year old...I wish that by the GoG's 1 Year Anniversary, which is August 28, we have at least 1,500 GoG members...I then open my eyes and blow out all 26 candles Very Happy
    ...
    After I finished my wish and blowing out all the candles, I realized maybe I should have wished for 2,000 GoG members, or even 10,000...owell, maybe that can my my Christmas present???"

    __________________________

    Obviously we're pushing towards 4,000 GoG members now and a lot has happened since last year, so with much of last year's birthday wishes coming true, I suppose I should make it rain with GoG wishes again and see if I can't go two years in a row Wink

    Okay...I'll close my eyes again, like I did last year, and wish that by this time next year we'll be past 5,000 GoG members and on our way to 10,000 strong. With the recent business development last weekend, I also wish for a positive shift towards bigger and even better things that our company offers...not only with this unique video game community, but also our video game event management services!

    Outside of this project, I'm excited to get married in 37 days, so this will be my last birthday as a single man. Pretty exciting!

    Anyways, today's already been great with friend's wishing me a happy birthday around the web, with text messages, phone calls, and in person...so thanks for that and cheers to my family, friends, and the GoG community...for making everything so great! Here's to another great year and I'll close with a quote from a birthday card I received from my Grandpa...

    "Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

    BEN, if we ever run into eachother in person I will do my best to buy you a garden gnome! And due to you mentioning a quote from your Grandpa I'll give you 2 which both relate to eachother from 2 people very close to me in an indirect way...

    Carpe Diem means Sieze the Day, and Mike has an extremely touching story behind it which makes it more powerful coming from him then Robin Williams in the Dead Poet Society.
