Who’s Paying for This?!
A few days before the party we’d had quite a discussion about whether people would be wrong to take money for writing comments that they sincerely felt. In the last comment on that post I left a message for a blogger friend, Chris Cree. . . .
Lorelle couldnââ¬â¢t be here, but she emailed to say,
Give my love to all the fellow SOBers and wish I was there!
I did.

At comment 278. Chris Cree discovered that I said he was paying for each comment at this birthday party. Chris said
OK! I must insist: Everyone stop commenting on this post!
I just noticed that Liz promised that I was volunteered to pay for all these comments!I better call Visa and up my credit limit!
Of course, no one listened.

Mike Sansone gave me a party hat and poetry. Liz Strauss Wears a Cap.
SeanRox had promised a cake.
What kind of cake do you like Liz? Iââ¬â¢m stopping by the bakery later, so I can get your favorite. . . . Ok Liz, a flourless chocolate cake ââ¬â with confectionerââ¬â¢s sugar only on top it is. I just put in the order and Iââ¬â¢ll pick it up on my way back to the party.
I think he ate it himself. . . . Gosh I hope he didn’t get sick. (They don’t call it “killer cake” for no reason.)
HART brought HARTââ¬â¢s Famous Chili. So I finally got something to eat.
We talked and partied until almost midnight.
It was an SOBirthday.
