Ok, friends - this is my last comment in this thread because I actually found this whole conversation a bit ridiculous.
But I think that I have to try to set a few things straight from what is publicly known about Bono's birthday this year.
If anyone has the (RED) VF magazine, they will find on page 150 "The Coaster Correspondence" which chronicles the two week trip to Africa from 4-16 May 2007 that Bono and Edwin John Coaster (VF editor) took to several countries in Africa.
On 9 May, they were in Ghana and on the 12 May, they were in Lesotho. (Very glad to see Bono back in Lesotho - a country that I am well familiar with as I belong to a local humanitarian organization that assists HIV/AIDS affected families there - so close to his b-day. )
Now, Bono did take two days off for his b-day (10 and 11 May) but unless he flew back to Dublin one day and then flew back to Africa the next day to celebrate his b-day in a place convenient for people to sit in his lap - the poster's story just doesn't hold up.
We heard nothing in the media about Bono going out drinking with his buddies at Lillie's this year or any other story about how he spent his b-day.
My money is on the most plausible story - he was travelling in Africa for the (RED) VF issue.
So, everybody is free to believe what they want. I just wanted to present the facts surrounding Bono's b-day this year to the best of our knowledge.
If y'all are just fantasizing and having some fun about sitting in Bono's lap on his b-day - no problem.
But I don't want any innocent people coming to this thread actually believing that someone's fantasy is actually reality.
Misleading people is not kind and is not cool the way that I see it.
You can see it however you want because I'm outta here!
LOVE AND PEACE - CoeXisT
