Happy Birthday, Debet!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Pipl found my birth name at an address I haven't lived at in almost 12 years, and found absolutely nothing under my present name.
Weirdly (if you know my birth surname, you know how rare it is -- there's exactly one person with my surname in the state of CA who isn't a member of my immediate family), there's someone with my dad's name listed with a street address and phone number in a local town where I know he's never actually lived, run a business, owned property, or really done anything but drive past on the freeway on his way to my childhood home for Christmas morning breakfast. Which would ordinarily make me flap my arms and go pssssh, whatever, but with all the creepy identity theft Buffistas have been running into lately I'm now suspicious and perturbed.
eta: Wait, it's Debet's birthday? That's not creepy or perturbing at all, it's celebration-worthy! Happy day and happy year, Debet!
(I always want to say Hippo Birdies because of Theo, but I always feel like I'm cheating if I say it before she does, so I'm sticking with plain old Happy Birthday for now)

All the hippo-birdies thought this was their cue, but then they realized it wasn't and sat down again.
Birthday Happies for Debet!!
Poor Hippo Birdies.
Thanks, JZ and tommyrot.
Happy happies, Debet!!
Pipl isn't impressing me, but that's fine. More academic, less random, than a google search of my name.
I've tried waking babies for feedings. It usually winds up in feeding a still-sleeping baby. Mmmm, sleeping babies....
Happy Birthday, DebetEsse!
Just saw a guy come out of the men's room here with the protective paper and then use it to open the door to the lobby.
Okay, I know this comment was this afternoon, but I had to post to say, wait, wait! Doesn't this mean he's now kindly transferred the purported germs from the bathroom door handle to the lobby door handle where unsuspecting people will now open the door without a protective paper?
I know I used a lot of italics there, but it was just that kind of post.

Dude. That is a little weird. You should let your dad know.
If you search me, it doesn't find some of the stuff Google comes up with, but it does find several of my old addresses (though not the current one, or the one before that), and one page it links to then tells you my age, and my parents' names and my sister's name! (Oddly, no mention of my brother). A little freaky, but no *current* contact info is on there. Huh.
Pipl found my four most recent addresses down to the zip code, and had other listings that included every city I've lived in in the US, including my sojourn in New Orleans.
What the fuck did I do to earn that?
At least none of the people it thinks are related to me are actually kin. That would be weird.
Skipping to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is DebetEsse's birthday.
Happy birthday, DebetEsse! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
