**HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DRMATRIX!!!**

Approximate Phonetic Chinese Version of “Happy Birthday”: (thanks, Nathan!)

“Guung juuk nay fook sow yuen teen tsai, hing hong nay sun sun fie lok. Leen leen doe yao gum yut, suuy doe yao gum jzew, guung hay nay! Guung hay nay!!!”

Approximate English Translation of Above:

“Congrats on this good day of fortune, where we can all gather together. Wishing you a very happy birthday. Every year, this wondrous day arrives; Always, this wondrous time comes. Congratulations! Congratulations!”

Hope you have a happy one! 🙂

Phew… 50’s getting up there, you know… best put in the prescriptions for Bengay and other assorted medications now, and work on that pension plan of yours while you’re still relatively mentally competent to do so. 😉

I think that was an injudicious remark for **Cajun Man** to make… he should be whipped soundly for it. Maybe that’ll teach him to make those kinds of remarks…

Looks like **DrMatrix** has his work cut out for him.

😃

Happy Birthday John.

Many happy returns, DR. M. It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. 🙂

Since the very term “cyberhug” makes me slightly queasy, I’m breaking my own rule here but here ya go . . .

::HUG!::

😃 Have a great day.

Happy Birthday **Dr. Matrix!!!**

Thanks everyone. **Cajun Man** took me out to dinner last night at the Blue Cat. Some friends met us after for drinks. It was great. My head hurts.
