Mine is the 9th. I have to work from 8 to 4 and 7 to 10, so celebrating will have to be done this coming weekend. I’m going to… The Olive Garden! (Did you think I was going to say Disneyland? 😉 ) ---

Yes, surprisingly enough, it’s even a part of my user name! 🙂 And … well, this is one of those major ones, too… I don’t want to actually reveal which one, but it is one of the milestone ones. Many years ago, I took Jack Benny’s cue and just say I’m turning 39 (again :)). (It’s 50, for the overly curious.) As my birthday is in the middle of the week, I may just take the day off of work and relax at home. That gives me the extra bonus of having a shortened work week! LOL No major plans, though. ---

Last year’s birthday was somewhat… subdued. Not sure yet though I know that I’ll be getting together with my family. Oh, and **beagledave** , I won’t be getting a beer of the month, but I think the last batch of homebrew that my dad and I made will be just about right by then. ---

Am I being stupid here: how did you find out when everyone’s birthday is? I’m 35 tomorrow (which is also the anniversary of the start of WWII and Cromwell’s Victory over the Scots). Thanks for your good wishes! ---

I have a keg of robust porter homebrew (hopped with homegrown hops!) in the fridge. Trade a few pints? 🙂 ---

My birthday is 9/11 but since it’s in the middle of the week I won’t be doing to much. I’ll also be busy planning my daughters first birthday party for 9/15. Happy Birthday to all the other September babies! ---

Mine is on the 30th. Well, it has been for the last 50 some odds years, so I suppose it will again this year. Happy Birthday to the others! Jim ---

Another September birthday girl here. I will be 32 years old on Sept. 24. My hubby’s birthday (he’s not a Doper) is the 25th and he is also going to be 32, which makes me one day older than him. I love telling people how I’m married to a younger man 🙂 ---

I have no idea what I’ll be doing, but I can bet that it will NOT be like last year. (a surprise party at a Greek restaurant that I knew about at least a week before the actual event, thanks to a friend of mine who accidentally let it skip out on the phone one night) All I can say is that my sister had better remember it, even if she **is** practically across the country by then… Thanks for all the wishes and such, and here is the alternate language version (which **TalkingHead** mentioned he’d copy and paste for later use for my birthday… or was that the Ethiopian version? I forget… either way, I’m pretty sure he was joking, so I’m not overly worried :D): 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!” F\_X ---

Trade a few pints? 🙂 \*\* What a coincidence - we made porter too. If I thought it would survive the trip, I would trade a few pints (well, 12oz bottles). Yup, absolutely yummy. At least from what we can tell so far (do you sample yours before you bottle or keg it too?). ---

I’ll be hitting the big 4-0 on the 15th. No trauma here, however - I just realized it this morning. Nothing planned (work all night, sleep all day… ). **beagledave** and **Linus Van Pelt** , would you mind firing a virtual pint or two of the porter my way? I’m getting ready to start homebrewing and would like to see what the competition is like. ---
