Title: Happy Birthday, TYP!
Post by: Jonnyboy117 on February 14, 2005, 12:15:35 PM
You know PGC has been around a while when even TYP is getting old.

Michael Cole, often known as "The Younger Plumber" or just "TYP", is turning 21 years old today.  This Luigi-obsessed Staff Writer was formerly known as the youngest PGC staffer (that honor would now belong to Karl) and once had a one-of-a-kind E3 media badge that said "Underage Guest"!  He's stuck with us for a long time and is now one of the most experienced writers on the staff.


In addition to being our expert reviewer for platform games and anything involving Mario Luigi, TYP is an excellent programmer and has recently been working on some technical projects for us too.  He's also in charge of our two trivia formats and is a very skilled voice actor.  This is one talented guy!

And a happy birthday to you, good sir.  On Valentine's Day, eh?  Not sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Anyway, have tons of fun.  It's good to have you on staff.

hahahah, what the heck?  I mean, thanks, KnowsNothing.  Yeah, I'm a Valentine's Day baby...not really that bad of a thing, except for when I actually go out for dinner to celebrate on the day of.  (I went for Japanese food last night.  Mmmmm.)

Happy Birthday TYP!  You have the same birthday as my boss... and probably a bunch of other people.

Too bad you're not the youngest staffer anymore.  I've been the youngest at my office since I started and it's great because I get to rub in how young I am in everyone else's face.  There's nothing better then on your birthday having a co-worker ask "how old are you now?" only to have them get all upset when you answer.  Hee hee!

Of course then I go on this forum and get reminded how OLD I am.  Oh well.

A big HB to TYP (hey that rhymes)! And I'm glad I could help you out of that "youngest staffer" thing. Heh, I'll probably hold that title for a while, too (unless Jonny starts hiring todlers). Anywho, enjoy the big day.

Happy birthday TYP. If/when you get a girlfriend, you can get a double whammy.

Las Vegas? 3-day weekend? I have one phrase: Moonlight Bunny Ranch. 'Nuff said.

Well Happy Bday TYP. lots of cool stuff over the years and im sure theres more to come. Youve done a great job with the trivias, especially radio, and made it lots of fun for us nerds. And, of course, your info about E3 helped me get the coolest gaming experience last year. And thats a big deal coming from New York. I even got the chance to bump into you guys there when we noticed we all had matching T-shirts . Well Happy Birthday once again, and i wish you the best of luck in your programming endeavors.
