To be honest, [the news about Columbia](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=160038) makes me wish I’d started this thread when I got home at 1 AM. Therefore, the tone in this OP will be subdued as compared to past birthday threads.

Yes, that’s right… it is now a new month, and time to recognize those who have a birthday in the month of February. So if you have a birthday this month, post here if you wish. If you’re doing something special, let us know.

Happy birthday to one and all:

Approximate Phonetic Chinese Version of “Happy Birthday”: (thanks, Nathan!)

“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!!!”

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!”

Enjoy your special day!

Thanks, **F\_X**!

While my birthday isn’t until tomorrow, I’ll be celebrating it tonight. I’m going to a Chamber of Commerce Ball. Dinner’ll be Filet Mignon, there’s an open bar, I’m wearing a tux paid for by my work, hob-nobbing with the local hoi poloi, all with a pretty girl on my arm. Last year, the Ball actually fell on my birthday, so I spent the whole evening pretending the entire to-do was all for me. Heck, I’ll probably do the same tonight! 🙂

And I’ll probably meet my friends up at the bar for a few Happy toasts after the shindig shuts down.  
Ahh, the big 2-8. Somehow I thought I’d be a little more mature (and rich) by now.

Happy

Oops, I meant ‘hoity toity.’ The local hoity toity. I, myself, am among the hoi polloi, and very rarely hob nobs with these hoity-toity types, hence my excitement at the opportunity to do so.

I’ll be 53 on Monday, February 3rd. When I consider the alternative, 53 doesn’t sound so bad. Happy Birthday to all other February Dopers.
