Thanks, Calvin, Grisny, et.al., but that was yesterday and this is today ("That was then, this is now?") and there is one chance in 365.25 that today is *your* birthday. My kid sister reminded me that having birthdays isn't so bad when consider the alternative. Highlights of the day included a cd with the soundtrack from "Music Man," some clothes, a cake w/o candles (major fire hazard) and some wise cracks that I won't repeat. Now it's back to another year of hinting for a new electric razor, a '46 Ford, and some scooter parts.
