Alot of us born on the 17th. I’ll be 38 on the 17th myself.  
I still could pass for _28_ though, right? _Right_?

And I’ll be an age-old, aged, antediluvian, antiquated, antique, archaic, back number, been around, bygone, creak, early, elderly, fossil, hoary, moth-eaten, obsolete, old goat, old-fashioned, older, oldie, out-of-date, outmoded, primal, primeval, primordial, relic, remote, rusty, superannuated, timeworn, and venerable 27 on the 20th.

Plus, thanks to MLK, I’ll have the day off of work! 😃

Well, yep. 😉

Of course, the way I have tends to be the five-finger discount whilst browsing through a thesaurus. Not terribly original, I’m afraid. But look!

It _is_ alphabetical. 😛

That’s my birthday too!

I’ve never met anybody else who has a birthday on the 21st. Does it always snow on your birthday too? It _always_ snows on my birthday. ☹

A friend of mine once had the idea of half-birthdays. I could have my half-birthday in June and I’d finally get to have a pool party. I hate having a winter birthday.

I’ll be turning 37 **shudder** on the 22nd. If anyone has seen where my life went, could you let me know. 😉

Allen Alda and I have the same birthday - the 28th. I’m not telling my age, but I wear suits that are older than most of you infants. Hell, I got stuff in my refrigerator that is older than some.

My son’s birthday is the 17th, the same birthday as Ben Franklin, Muhammed Ali, and Al Capone. Who says there is nothing to astrology? 🙂

Oh my goodness. That was SUCH great coding, **whatmove**. 🙂 I’m not kidding you. Definitely captures the tones of the song perfectly. Happy birthday to all of you, indeed. (and now I’m off to get some sleep before I end up spewing nonsense all over the boards… like I haven’t already)

I turn 19 on the 27th.

Coincidentally, my non-Doper mother’s birthday is on the 27th too.

Small world, huh?
