I’m 22 today. Its good stuff.

I get thoughtful on my birthday too, not so much depressed as just quiet and busy considering where I want to go from here.

It not amazing or cool that my birthday is on the 4th. It’s simply one of a possible 365.25 days on which I could have been born. No big deal.

Thank God!!! Someone finally said it. Yes **I** too was born on the 4th of July. And now I know what to tell everyone that says its superdupercool. As always, cash and gifts can be mailed directly to me. Email me for my address and shipping info.😃

\*\*Swampy!![b/]  
It’s me! You know the one whose love you spurned?  
I didn’t know our birthdays were so close!  
Mine’s on the 28th just a day before yours.  
See!?!? That’s just one more thing that shows we belong to each other.

You have the same birthday as my father… only he’s turning 54. Old enough to be YOUR father… I should know this well, seeing as my beloved younger brother turns 22 in November this year. 😃

Specifically, when I graduated, how many things did I think I’d accomplish before I was 25 that I haven’t yet done… I’m not trying to rain on anyone’s parade here, but I’ve noticed this happening to me the last 3 years or so… \*\*

Hey-whoa, how did I miss this one! My birthday was the first and I was (well, I guess I still AM!) 25.

Happy BD to my fellow July’ers as well. From looking at this it appears I may be one of the old timers at 37.

Don’t know how you keep track of all those, **Flamsterette\_X** , but thanks! And let’s all sing a few bars of City of New Orleans for Arlo Guthrie tomorrow. He’ll be 53, exactly 20 years older than me.

I have a blue coiled notebook in which I note all Doper birthdays, since you were wondering. 🙂
