what exactly is 'the barney?' does it involve off-key singing? :D

Well it's a bit like the Ostrich, crossed with the okey-cokey.

Happy Birthday Barney

The Barney......is the dance he is now renowned for (espescially after the Jools Holland / TOTP appearances)

you could also add talking shite between songs and getting pissed;)

Glad to report that Barney's birthday has made CNN Headline News....on the little things that pop up on the bottom of the screen...

of course, they list him as Albrecht, mention Joy Division, and, sigh :nonono: and nazis....

oh...and if any of you really care...it is also Michael Stipe's birthday today...yippee!!!!

It must be said that he still looks good at 47 considering his lifestyle! I wouldn't say no :love2: :kiss:

Happy Birthday to Barney!

whoops, that was supposed to be a reply with a quote.

where, I don't see it on my cnn headline news. I don't see anything popping up at the bottom of the screen. is it a different version of headline news? mine is the US one, I've looked at the main page and the entertainment area. gotta see the barney note!

4 Jan 2003, 12:29

oh duh you probably mean the tv version! that's what I get for looking at the web all the time and never watching tv. :eek:

Really? I wouldn't have thought he'd make the Headline News ticker. I'll have to watch for that (of course it wouldn't be too much torture to wait if the lovely Rudi Bahktiar was on :evil4: )

Happy birthday, Barney :\party: :beer: :beer: :barney: :\pimp3:

Many happy returns to Barney. 47 years old today. BTW Shug that makes him the same age as your Dad. I think Barney has led a sheltered life in comparison!
