It's his birthday!

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

17 years ago, whilst hospital staff nationwide were trying to celebrate the 13th anniversary of Britons' finally conquering Mt. Everest, someone was spoiling the party. A woman, somewhere in a place located roughly between Croydon and Croydon, was giving birth. The result was someone who went on to become a darned good Global Moderator, a lover of all things fish, Phil Collins and Michael Jackson, NOT a PokéMole Winner (gives him pwnage, don't cha think?) and use the alias "Rex".

Yes, Rex aka Steelix aka Articuno Stalker turns 17 today. Rather excitingly, that means he can learn to drive. Even more excitingly, if he lived across the big pond, he'd be able to donate blood, join the military to go off and fight pointless wars, as well as legally watch R-rated Movies.

The picture you saw by clicking to get here is what Rex looked like when he sent me his picture a good few months ago. Chances are he might have changed by now. Who knows, he might have died his hair pink and think he belongs in the Matrix now, in which case he might look like the gentleman on your right.
