Merry Christmas to you, and Happy New Years my old friend.

Paul, you were the first person who greeted my here if you don't remember.

I do and well.

BTW, I will be playing a Canadian jazz CD later.

And Happy Return of the Light to you, you generous meatbag you (as siftbot would say....)

I don't know how far north or south you are, but where I come from, the Solstice is greeted with great joy!

That is one long and elaborate handshake. 2nd longest greeting, bested only by Ents.

Another Birthday Greeting just for you Gary. I hope you have a fun day planned and the sky shines bright on you!

I just translated the lyrics. Damn, I forgot how difficult translating poetry can be. It took me quite some time. I tried to translate it as closely to the German meaning as possible, while still upholding or at least emulating some aspects of the poetic style of the original.

"Spring Greeting

1. (intro)
One beautiful spring day
A spring greeting – a little flower
Lay dying by the wayside

The poor thing had been plucked
Its existence doomed – Thrown away
To feed Death alone

2.
As I bowed down
To eye this misery
That bespoke brutal workings
Suggesting no remorse
A word escaped my throat
– Murder!

For this flower, so fragile
Was appallingly, purposely plucked
By the wayside, I assume
In a rush of ecstasy, absent-mindedly,
Someone bowed down
And bemused, elated, blushed,
In spring rapture, deeply delighted,
Discovered, clutched and killed it

Chorus:
And I asked myself, who seeks,
Against all grace and goodness,
To take such beauty's life
Executed, slaughtered
So disempowered, off-handedly
This peaceful blossom
So discarded and despised
Oh forbid

3.
The fool, he was so moved
That he had no doubt
His mind was captivated
By its splendor, which he abducted
And unscrupulously corrupted
As he took it – gave himself to it
Only then he became aware - it was dying

And suddenly the realization
Flashed through his mind and all too honestly
Comprehension became confession
Into his heart, painfully,
His misdeed crept, all too gravely

Chorus:
And he asked himself, who seeks,
Against all grace and goodness,
To take such beauty's life
Executed, slaughtered
So disempowered, off-handedly
This peaceful blossom
So discarded and despised
Oh forbid

4. (Bridge)
Shocked by his fallibility
He threw the beauty into the sand
Irritated by his misdeed
He retreated from his disgrace
‘Though he had desired the little flower,
Loved, adored, admired it,
He had not respected it
And this splendor by the wayside
Is now concluded and passed

Chorus:
And he asked himself, who seeks,
Against all grace and goodness,
To take such beauty's life
Executed, slaughtered
So disempowered, off-handedly
This peaceful blossom
So discarded and despised
Oh forbid

And he asked himself, who seeks,
Against all grace and goodness,
To take such beauty's life
Executed, slaughtered
So disempowered, off-handedly
This peaceful blossom
So discarded and despised
Man forbid

5. (outro)
One beautiful spring day
A spring greeting – a little flower
Lay dying by the wayside

Bereaved of the beautiful springtime
Of existence – doomed – of lust itself
A victim of vain humanity

It was me. It was me. I'm sorry.
It was me. It was me. Now I'm sorry."

Yep, they still do that sk(it/etch) today AFAIK. Was the updated version better to you than the original version? For some reason, I still like the original designs more. My favorite BMG tunes:

Above
Game of Thrones Cover
Last Train to Trancentral
Opening Mandelbrot
Rods and Cones
Terminator 3 Theme

And yes, they're back in Luxor. They keep moving around in Sin City. Haha.

Did you ever do that meet and greet to get pictures with them? I did two blue men.

I do want to see them again, but I will wait until they change a lot.

BTW, https://www.facebook.com/BlueManGroupFans is a good frequent updated BMG fan site.

I worked directly outside of Brian Fargo's office for a couple years, and my social anxiety was so bad that I never even spoke to him more than the occasional greeting in passing. I'm such an idiot.

He's a really nice guy too.

Birthday greetings golden one

I met him outside the theater in Denver when he was in "The Elephant Man" in 1980. He signed autographs and said a few words into my tape recorder as a greeting to my family. He was very gracious. He was also the first one I ever saw wearing a Sony Walkman at that time, that was right before it became hugely popular.
