I would be partying even if it wasn’t my birthday, because I was born on New Year’s Eve! Daddy’s little tax deduction, that’s me. I’ve always enjoyed having my birthday on a holiday, especially one that’s so close to another major holiday. Mom said my due date was 12/25, but God sent me down on a day more appropriate to my nature. And my name IRL is derived from the Greek god of wine and revelry! Whoo hoo! ---

Ah well I turn 32 on the 29th. We had a Dopefest one year for it 🙂 Well not really, but It just happened to work out that way. Thanks again for the Vodka Gooti and Mouthbreather! I have no plans as of yet this year. ---

My birthday is today! I am also the first-born son of parents named Joseph and Mary. This has not gone to my head. I’ve been level-headed since I left the manger. ---

I’m only posting in this thread because I want to give **Cal** props for his sig. It cracks me up every time. Oh wait, I do have a birthday this month. I’ll be turning 21 the Saturday after Christmas. And it’s incredibly irritating, for reasons to do with the DMV and license renewal and them not being open on Saturdays and me having plans to be in Ontario for my birthday. (If I renew early, I get the “Under 21”-style license again. Grr.) ---

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 all have fantastic birthdays! 🙂 Oh, and **CalMeacham** , you might be allowed to let it get to your head if your birthday was actually on the 25[sup]th[/sup] instead of the 1[sup]st[/sup]! 😃 F\_X ---

Cal of Nazareth? Happy birthday, all you December babies! If it makes you feel any better, so far every decade has been more fulfilling than the one before. David Simmons, is December 3, 1922 you actual birthday? If so, my hat is off to you! Were you a G.I.? ---

Hey **Baker** – I’m also New Year’s Eve! When – woohoo – I’ll be 48. I’ve got to renew my driver’s license also – always fun, with all the kids on Xmas break jamming the DMV. At this point, no plans – I usually go over to my sister’s for dinner, come home early, and watch Dick Clark. Middle age ain’t for sissies – or the easily bored.
