Happy Birthday, Niko!!!

Today is my friend Nick’s birthday. Of course we all make fun of him for having been born as a joke on April Fool’s day. I would post his picture, but I didn’t get his permission or anything, so I’ll have to do without it.

I’ve known Nikola for like… uh… 15 or 16 years!!! He owes me about $999,975, give or take a dollar or two, because one day long time ago I wanted something from a vending machine, and I didn’t have any money. So I asked him if he had a million dollars. Why? Well, if I’m gonna ask for money, I’m not just gonna ask for a measly buck, you know. And he answered, “No, but I have a dollar if you want, and I’ll owe you 999,999 dollars. And I’ll pay you a dollar a year for a million years.” So that’s how he got to owe me so much money. I kept bothering him for my dollar every year, and one year, he gave me a twenty to shut me up for the next 20 years.

Anyway, he’s a very dear friend of mine even though he was born as a joke and it’s not just because he promised me a million dollars.

Happy Birthday, Nikolaki!
