Just thought I’d wish a fond happy birthday to all the July 29ers out there. Once again, I am living hours ahead, so I get to start the annual back patting for turning another page in the calendar of life. It’s 3:26am over here. Three hours into what will probably be the most mundane birthday ever (for me…).

But happy birthday to all of you!!! Hope you have more excitement lined up than dust storms and scalding hot weather. Hell, at least you guys can have a drink!!

So drink one for me!! Happy Birthday everyone!!!  
By the way, if you’re part of the 7/29 club, let it be known in here. I can’t remember all the names, but I know it’s an exclusive list!! Swampy is easy since he is EXACTLY twn…_mumble_… eefiv… errr um… well he is a little older and has “bear” in his name…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PEOPLE!!!

As I enter the day which is the ultimate party bears’s burfday, I am quaffing a cold Harp and challenging the\*\* Kid\*\* in a game of Wii bowling. She’s lost 4 in a row now and you’d think she would have learned by now.

_clears throat_

CUMPLEAÑOS FELIZ,  
CUMPLEAÑOS FELIZ,  
OS DESEAMOS A TODOS  
CUMPLEAÑOS FEEEEEEELIIIIIIIIIIIIZ

Aren’t cubs supposed to be born in winter? Are both **Nenno** and **Swampus** from the southern hemisphere and they forgot to tell us? The plot thickens!

Today we’re having dinner at the flat shared by two of my coworker; the birthday of one was yesterday, the other one’s is on friday 🙂 Knowing how they cook when it’s “regular” food, we’re counting on eating leftovers the whole week!

Yay for people born on the 29th! 🙂

I was born on Nov. 29, my dad was born on May 29 and my mom was born on Jan. 29. Clearly, the 29th produces awesomeness! 😃

Happy birthday, guys!

My sister compels me to say that the 22nd breeds people of exceptional fantasticness as well. (In all fairness, she is pretty awesome. :))

Have a good one\*\* swampy\*\*! Drink beer and eat chocolate cake. But keep 'em seperate, they aren’t good mixers! I didn’t realize so many Dopers share 7/29. I know of one other who shares my birthday _ **and** _ date, making us the same age exactly(that’s **twickster** ).

And now, as a good Episcopalian:

_Watch over your child, O Lord, as his days increase; bless and guide him wherever he may be. Strengthen him when he stands; comfort him when discouraged or sorrowful; raise him up if he fall; and in his heart may your peace which passes understanding abide all the days of his life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. (BCP 830)_

Thanks for all the birthday wishes y’all!

Yep **meenie7** the 29th does tend to produce awsomeness all year long. 😃

**Baker** it will be an ice cream cake with chocolate ice cream. YUM!!! Thanks for the birthday prayer/blessing. Spoken like a true Episcopalian, right outta the prayer book. 😃
