hey bowtwi!..............HAPPY BIRTHDAY BA-A-A-A-A-BY!..........sure wish i had some "lost" and never seen or heard before, john hartford to send ya!!!........but, instead, you'll just have accept my best wishes for a great day, followed by many more in health, strength, and joy!................and..............peace.
...Every time I see your name I still think it says "bow tie"...
Maybe that's 'cause it IS pronounced "bow tie".
See, I spell it capital B-O-W-t-w-i. (I'm a total word nerd, I know.) I figure it like this: It's MY screen name so I take poetic license...
B is for BETTER. O is for OFF. The first W is for WITHOUT. Those are capital letters - emphasis on them.
The lower case t - w - i refers to the cult by name. I do not capitalize them as I do not respect the cult. Not only do I not capitalize them as I would any other "proper noun", but the lower case w in my screen name is a silent w. My way of silencing thewayinternational in my little corner of the world.
The lower case letter i is a long i - sounds like the word "eye".
Part of the fun of this particular screen name is remembering Shell trying to wrap her mouth around pronouncing that second letter w - makes me giggle every time - lol (She says it like it's "boat-why"). But then she also calls me "box", but that's another story for another day (unless Shell wants to tell it).
I used to have an avatar of a monkey sporting a bow tie, so that might also give the subliminal message that it's pronounced that way.
If I ever get sick of my current avatar (not TOO likely), I may switch to that bow tie you posted. I like it.
Off for a birthday walk Thanks for the good wishes!

Happiest of Birthdays, dear friend!
So our buns aren't as tight and our breasts aren't as perky,
and the skin on our chins makes us look like a turkey...
What was flat is now round. There's no need to be modest!
We've matured from "young girl" into "middle-aged goddess!"
Happy Birthday!
Enjoy the last year of your "Lordy Forties". Look forward to welcoming you to the "Nifty Fifties" club next year!

:) glad it was a good day
I call you boat why cuz I couldn't figure out how it was supposed to be.
Bow twee?
Bow tie?
I got the better off without the way international part ok
But it was too long to type in chat, I'm lazy
Which is where the 'box' came in, when I typed it and didn't fix it
With a name like mine, I'm pretty ocd about saying others' names right.
