<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">This last year has flown by. While it's hard to believe that it's time to wish Bill a happy birthday once again, it's even harder to believe that he's turns 72 today! Even he has trouble believing it. </font>

<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">Bill talks about his feelings on age in a special birthday message which Paul posted on the main BBS. If you haven't had the opportunity to listen to Bill's message yet, i</font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">t's a real treat. You can access it through the Interact portion of the website, or click on this direct link to download the wav file: </font>

<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">As you may know, Bill was born on March 22, 1931 in Montreal, Canada. On the Chinese calendar, that makes him born in the year of the Ram (or the Sheep). Those born in the year of the Ram are said to be charming, elegant, artistic and highly accomplished in the arts. They are wise, gentle, compassionate, and passionate about what they do and what they believe in. They also tend to favor jobs as actors, gardeners or beachcombers! It's kind of amazing how well the description fits Bill. </font><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">And as he celebrates his birthday this weekend, we wish him joy, happiness and the company of family and friends. </font>

<p align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#FFFFFF">Next Saturday, March 29, 2003, Bill accepts Creation Entertainment's Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grand Slam XI Sci-Fi Summit convention in Pasadena, California. </font>

</blockquote> <p align="left"><font color="#FFFFFF" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Just last August, Bill had the honor of presenting Leonard Nimoy with Creation's Lifetime Achievement Award during a convention appearance in Las Vegas, Nevada. As usual, Bill had Leonard in stiches by the time he handed him the award!</font>

<p align="center">

<p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#FFFFFF">This is actually the third prestigious award Bill has received in the last six months. On September 21, 2002, the Temecula Valley International Film &amp; Music Festival presented him with a Lifetime Achievement Award. And on December 8, 2002, the University of Guelph's Ontario Veterinary College presented him with the Heroes of the Horses Award for his philanthropic work with the Hollywood Charity Horse Show. </font>

<p align="left"><font color="#FFFFFF" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">If you're in the Los Angeles area the weekend of March 28-30, you really should try to make it over to the convention. Bill's set to appear late Saturday afternoon. The full schedule is posted on Creation's website and advance tickets are available online or at Ticketmaster outlets. Provided they don't sell out before the convention starts, tickets should also be available at the door. We will have a table in the dealer's room on Saturday and Sunday, so be sure to stop by.</font>
