Mini-birthday get-together for Miss Creant. NO SINGING.

That’s right, if you can make it, please do. Tonight. I couldn’t post earlier, because she would have known. We’re preparing to walk out the door, so I know it’s safe.

There’s about 6 dopers already showing up tonight at the Wild Goose bar down Chicago way. If you’d like to show up as well, we’ll be getting there at about 10.

There will be no singing of Happy Birthday. I can’t afford to pay the royalties.

Here’s wishing you a very happy birthday, Miss Creant!

More birthday wishes, Miss Creant, just wish I could make it but a four hour trip is tough on such short warning!

All right everybody! We have a birthday at this table!

One, Two,
One - two - three - four
Hey! Hey! Hey!

Happy, happy birthday,
From all the Straight Dope crew,
we hope you are embarrassed
that’s why we sing to you – HEY!

Hey, I just got the approximate phonetic Chinese version of “Happy Birthday” from one of my friends, too!

“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!!!”

Now, if only I had asked for a translation of that…

I’m pretty sure it means something along the lines of, “May your year be filled with happiness, and congratulations!” Probably has some other stuff along the lines of, “Every year, on this day, we congraulate you,” but I’m not too sure.

Anyways, have a happy birthday, Miss Creant! All the best to you! :slight_smile:

Happy birthday, Miss Creant! Have a great time tonight!

I think you all might have a better time if you’d fly down to Hawaii.

However, I won’t be holding my breath (“Damn!” thought lobley). :smiley:

Happy birthday, Miss Creant.
