This comment happened at 7:44 am and said Happy Birthday Windows
Clue six – Comments 18 through 25 at least all happened at 7:44 am
So, that being said, I was born July 21, 1957 at 7:44 am
Now for the winner: (Click on the play button below before continuing)
Her guess was July 21 at 1:01 am. Stacie at SUPER MOMMY TO THE RESCUE and Jientje at Heaven is in Belgium were close with the day being correct and their times were 3:05 pm and 4:27 pm.
Congratulations Melli. Job well done. You now have your choice of a $25.00 iTunes or Amazon gift card. Please email me so that we can get started on this.

Wow, congratulations Melli!! I had it narrowed down to four different days, but chose the wrong one. And I am surprised you’re my age! I thought you were younger.
Thanks for playing my friend. Aloha
Congrats to the Winner Melli
I knew you were born in 1957, just couldn’t remember the date. I read it somewhere on one of the dated pictures of ye on your Photo Sharing Thingy when ye were just a wee broth of a boy, I just couldn’t remember where, as you have 1000’s n’ 1000’s of pictures over there.
Speaking of pictures, I got one posted on the blog with the Close Up guessing game again. Hopefully you should be able to figure out what this is
(that’s a hint by the wey)
“Have Bus Wench Will Travel”
Thanks for the comment. I’ve made my guess on yours
Aloha
The Answer is up, go have a boo, You were Dead Bang on (well really really close)
Go See
I did but I thought it was the destination sign on the front of the bus LOL
Though I seldom participate in contests I always enjoyed running them.
Yeah this was fun. I enjoyed it
Aloha
hey congrats to Melli! It was fun taking part in this contest…..you are still young Thom
hope u had a good weekend and 4th July
LOL…thanks for that comment. I appreciate it. We had a great time yesterday
Aloha
Darn. I was in Internet Never, Never Land. I had my comment written out ready to cut and paste. I figured out the Day and YEar, and knew the time was a.m. and most likely 7 something. For my comment I chose 7:10 — but my comment never got posted.
And I am just as happy that Melli won. No worries of having my ethics challenged again.
Poor thing. You would have been the winner
LOL
That’s okay. I’m a winner anyway as long as you’re my friend!
Awwwww! That’s sweet!
Same with you? Did you go crazy over the 4th? I think this could be a conspiracy by you both *me shakes his head and wonders what these two are up to
Trying to butter me up for something? That is so not how you talk to me ROFLMAO…Is that rash affecting your thought process? ROFLMAO
I thought I’d try to be nice for a change. My mistake. Won’t happen again!
Atta girl. That’s the Q i know and love
LOL
Congratulations Melli.
Now I must go add Thom to my calendar.
NEVER MIND…no you dont LOL
Congrats to Melli. I would have thought that Nessa would have got it. So sorry Nessa.
Nessa, I need technical help with my blog. I added another blog and now my user stats does not work. Thom you may know the answer to this. I would appreciate any help from you.
Thanks, Pam
Thanks for the comment. I don’t worry about stats so I can’t help Ya. Sorry about that
Aloha
Congrats to Melli!
Hope everyone had a great 4th!
Thank you and I hope you did as well
Congrats Melli. I am sorry Thom but I did not comment I just started working on getting the meme. Then I forgot to come back and guess your birthday. I was wrong anyway.
That’s okay. I’ll probably have another one of some sort. You can do that one . Aloha )
CONGRATULATIONS Melli!!
You GO, girl!
And, Thom…I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the drum roll. That was BRILLIANT!!!
I’m glad to know when your birthday is, because I’ll be sending you one of the Pussycat Dolls via email to do a private dance for you!
HAHAHAHHAHHAA!
Hahahahaha….
THERE ya GO Thom… something to look FORWARD to!
WOOT…don’t i know
It better be the lead singer LOL. I’m glad someone got the drum roll. You are the first to mention that. I thought it was the right touch. So you win the prize
*thinking what should the prize be LOL
Congrats Melli!!
Now I have to jot down 7/21 in my birthday list
Oh know you dont…just because you know doesn’t mean you have to remember it LOL. pffft yeah right…I want TONS of presents ROFLMAO
Good job Meli! Congratulations!
Thank you for the comment. Much appreciated
WOOOT! WOW! Yay ME! I knew the date – from all the clues. But that last one for the time – I went to that site, and there was something about some software version 1.01 — so I went with that! (I don’t remember if it was Windows or what it was… when I went back the next day the whole page had changed… so I just stuck with it!) I was really SHOCKED though to find out we were born the same year! I had you AT LEAST 10 years my junior! That one floored me! Thank you sO much Thom! I really didn’t play for a prize though… I just played to have fun!
LOL…10 years your junior…I so wish…well maybe not. I like the age I am. Well you can see what the two pages had in common. I was hoping someone would notice the Happy Birthday. I thought that would be the one everyone saw. Oh well. I got your email and responded. CONGRATULATIONS Clementine
Congrats Melli!
Thanks for the comment
Congrats to Melli! Thom, you sure know how to set up a treasure hunt.
Hope you had a wonderful 4th. Been a tough day so far, but I’ll post about it shortly.
Thanks for the comment. I hope to do another one in the future. Hope you are feeling better. Take the oxygen
I’ll look forward to the read.
That’s just when I was thinking. (No, actually clueless as usual-lol.)
Congratulations Melli!
Oh my friend, I would have left off the part in the ( ) LOL Note it’s easier to display instead of trying to figure out how to spell it. LOL
Congrats Melli
! I missed out all the fun. Sigh. Hope I’ll be around the Blogosphere to witness the Pussycat Dolls singing for you 
. Have a wonderful week, Thom.
I hope so to. You are really missed I tell ya. I hope you are doing better. Aloha my friend
