Time to celebrate Straight Dope August birthdays! :)

Damn, Rand.

You’re 12 years younger than me, yet I take orders from you.

It’s a good thing that rambunction is what I do best.

Happy birthday.

I’m August 12th, and also coming up on the remarkably disappointing 20-year mark. I think I may just drive up to Canada and hit the bars there - to heck with it!

Happy Birthday to everyone else whose birthday is this month! To those of you who’re turning 40, and are starting to feel old - just remember, that’s only twice as old as I am.

Hmm, that wasn’t a bit helpful, was it? Darn. How about “If you do really well, you’ll be able to retire before social security collapses”?

Damn, now I’m depressed. :slight_smile:

August 22 for me too. I am sandwiched in between my husband and my youngest son. A big week for CAKE.

I have one this month too. 19th. I’ll probably celebrate it by going to class.

Blackeyes you and I share the same birthdate…along with Bill Clinton, Mathew Perry, Gene Roddenberry, etc…

No plans at this point though. I will be 35 this year!

Me too. Maybe I’ll call up Bubba and see if he’s got any plans. I sure don’t. (43)

Me- today!

What am I doing? Working on a paper! The joys of grad school are never-ending.

August 1st here. I haven’t seen a birthday thread in a while!

I turned 22. What did I do? Well, I had a ticket to Disneyland left over from my graduation party that expired Wednesday, so I went there. An amusement park is not as fun when you’re by yourself, let me tell you. After striking out with a variety of ladies I went home, talked to some friends, and played games. Yesterday I went to Red Lobster with my family and single-handedly destroyed an army of crabs.

Ivyboy will be 14 on the 17th.

Jeez…it seems like I was just changing his diaper last week.

It goes by so fast…

I share mine with Mr. Blue Sky and prisoner6655321, only you can add a few years. Okay, a boatload of years. I’m going to sit on my front porch with my dog, rock back and forth and practice screaming at the neighborhood kids. I have an image to start honing.

Happy Birthday everyone!

BraheSilver, the reason you haven’t seen a birthday thread in a while is that the last one was in July. It’s now August. :stuck_out_tongue:

Seriously though, maybe next year someone will remember. Someone who’s not me, that is. I like you and all, but I’m not posting two birthday threads (one general and one specific) in one day would be a bit much for the mods, I’m sure.

Add me and CrankyAsAnOldMan to the August 28 birthday list.

Don’t forget DrMatrix on the 27th, and the lovely nymysys on the 6th.

i’ll be 19, and i really dont want to be. if i could choose, i’d still be 16 and maybe making some different choices, like trying to fit in…

You left me out of the magic list… :frowning:

I’ll be turning 21 on the 20th, and since I’m a US resident you can all figure out what I’ll be doing :wink:

Thanks, Flami!

I’ll turn 36 this August, 10 th.

Happy birthday to all my fellow SDMB Leo’s and Cancer’s!

Happy birthday to my fellow August-born dopers. I am clearly in good company.

My birthday is on August 20th, but I got my present this past weekend–a day at the spa before my 25th high school reunion.

Brynda… we share a birthday!

You know this means we have to exchange gifts, right? :wink:

Wow, I felt thay way once, no, I still feel that way.

13th here, I was born on a Tuesday, so I guess I’m not cursed.

Plans, Going back home on the 6th for 2 1/2 weeks, going to a winston cup race with the old man and some friends, and generally plan on giving my liver the work out of its life. Oh yeah and steamers. they don’t have those out here in the middle of absolutely nowhere.

August 30 here. And I haven’t planned that far ahead… :slight_smile:

Hey, Monstre… I just noticed your location. Interesting way of indicating that you live in Florida… :slight_smile:
