***PSSSSST*** Get Ready!

Good Morning All!

Oh my! Where are my manners. Although this wonderful website is primarily English and has many users from the US like myself, people from around the WORLD use it to reach their diet and fitness goals. So in other parts of the world, it's not even morning! For example, as I type this up, it just past 2:30AM on Friday June 7th in Apia, which is a small city on the island of Samoa.

This brings me to the point of this topic. I have a good friend on this website, a BFFF (the last 'F' is for forever) if you will, named Sjohnny.

Sjohnny's birthday is June the 7th, and I know he's been feeling a bit down lately. He's an older chap, so I think the bitterness is just a sign of his age.

He's done so much to help me on my weightloss journey, and I don't want him to be unhappy on his birthday. I've been racking my brain trying to come up with a suitable gift or present to really celebrate everything that he means to me as a friend.

I think the best way to show my appreciation would be to enlist the help of all of you wonderful people! If you wouldn't mind, on June the 7th I (and I know he feels the same way) would love it if you could take some time to stop by his profile page and wish him a happy birthday, either on his wall or via PM. Now it's not yet June the 7th for most of you, but since we're a global community as I mentioned before, it's June 7th somewhere for the next 46.5 hours.

His profile page is: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/sjohnny

Please, join me in making this a birthday that Sjohnny will never forget.

Thank you in advance and have a wonderful day!

In case you were wondering, this is a recent picture of the birthday boy!

    IN!

    I really couldn't have achieved my goals without sjohnny's support. He's like the grandpa I never had. I know that I can turn to him anytime I need advice on running, lifting, p*ssing people off......or whenever I need a Werther's Original and some old-timey stories. He's so great like that.


    Happy Birthday Grandpa sjohnny!! Can't wait to help you celebrate it :bigsmile:

    I am not going to miss this day!!

    SJohnny is an inspiration to us all and he deserves the very best on his special day. He is near and dear to our hearts and I, for one, am looking so forward to celebrating tomorrow with my fellow Texan.

    I'm just so excited, so as a precursor, I have included this special picture that reminds me of my friend!!

    Just so everyone can get an idea of who this special man is, I've included some pictures that represent him:

    As you can see, he is both sweet and grumpy at the same time. That's why we love him so.

    He's like the sour patch kids commercial. First he's sour, then he's sweet.

    Happy Birthday SJohnny! I was gonna make a wisecrack about your lawn but someone already stole my thunder. Now I see why these topics are so divisive.
