I swear I thought it said “Stray parts” instead of “stray party hats”.

It’s too early for me!

Happy Belated Birthday, **Kythereia**!

I’m surprised none of the hound dogs have shown up to offer you a How’re _you_ doin’? for your 21st, goats and cephalopods notwithstanding. I’m too married to do that myself, so I’m just sayin’… 😃

While 21 is a big milestone, there’s still many good ones left, so may you have them! 🙂

Goats? Cephalopods?  
Methinks I’ve missed something…

[QUOTE=Penchan]  
Happy Birthday! Be sure to have a midori sour. Those are almost orgasmically good - so what a way to bring in the legalness, eh?  
[/QUOTE]

Actually, as she’s a resident of Ontario, **Kythereia** has been “legal” [for a couple of years already.](http://smartserve.org/licensee_legal_age.asp)

Hmm. Being “legal” here means something quite different. Either that, or I apparently run with a bad crowd.

Anyway, Happy (slightly late) Birthday! July’s a good month for birthdays, I always say. 😉

Happy Birthday to you!

Might I humbly suggest a lottery ticket for this your lucky day!

Were I in your town I would take you out for a fine beverage of your choice!

Oh, and, of course, I’d bring cake!
