It’s that time again, to recognize the birthdays of Dopers. Since it’s October, all the October babies get their day (or month) in the spotlight. (albeit one day late because I wasn’t feeling up to it yesterday… sorry)
**HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVERYONE!!!**
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!”

Post here if your birthday is in October, if you know what your plans are, or if you simply want to wish them a happy birthday.
Hope you all have a good birthday and year to come! 🙂

Flami, thanks so much!
I just had about the sh\*ttiest day in my life today, and you just made it better.

I forgive you for overlooking my birthday on October 15th.
I will be forty, anxiously waiting for life to begin…

**Smashed Ice Cream** , I’m glad I can still make some people feel better. 🙂 Hope things look up for you.
**Mikie** , at least someone forgives me for _something_! 😉 Hopefully, your life will have a shiny new beginning mid-month.

And looking at my Doper Birthday Notebook[sup]TM[/sup], where I just put **Mikie** ’s birthday for future reference… I see that there are now EIGHT birthdays on Oct. 15. :eek:

Any more Oct. 15 people out there? You could all start a sports team with extra players in reserve, or something…

Eight is enough for one hockey team shift with two left over (gotta have a goalie). Nine would be a baseball team.
This pointless distraction brought to you by the time 1:45 and the letters I-N-S-O-M-N-I-A. They are such special letters that I included two twice.

I don’t want to hear a DAMN THING about my birthday!!! Today, I blew $10, 000. AND IT HAS TO DO WITH MY BIRTHDAY. There is this radio station in NYC (WBLS for those who CARE) that does a give away every week day, 1 grand every weekday, except on thursdat where it is is 10 tosands dollars given away for the first person to call in with the birtday they annonce tha tday. TOday way my birthday.
Did I call? NO!!! My LAZY ASS SLEPT THROUGH IT! even when my mother called to wake me up to tell me. Now **Tubadiva** and **Monty** both tell me to get over it, I never _had_ the money in the first place. BLAH BLAH BLAH!! I’m broke I need the cash damn it!! SO I’ve been drowning my sorrows in Alcohol. and it’s been working (excuse the typo’s.) so this has been my day, damn it all to hell and gone!!

October 4th here. I’ll be 20…wow, 20. I know there are people here 3 times older but 20 years seems like a long time in my lifetime…in fact it’s practically my entire lifetime…
Well, at least I’m done with those blasted teen years.

I had mine on October 1st. It’s my “meaning-of-life” birthday, and i got the best birthday present ever - a chainsaw! That so rocks.
Also, I’m going out to dinner tonight with the bloke at a nice Italian restaurant, and on Sunday we’re having a BBQ & spa-warming party.

I’m Oct. 12. I’ve already bought my own birthday presents, so that’s taken care of . . . a new bike! Wheee!
Like cajela, this is my “meaning of life” birthday. But damn, I look pretty good for a fossil.

Mine, and my bestest friend twin brother **Jonmarzie** are going to be 20 on the 20th.
Finally, we rid ourselves of this dastardly teenage years.
Thanks, **Flami**!

_Ahem_
_Cough_ the 11th. _cough_ Same day as England vs Turkey in the Euro2004 qualifier (soccer) match. I expect I may be rather merry that evening.
Y’know, seeing as I’m fairly new, I’ll understand if you don’t all club together to buy me a Maserati sports car. Really, I will. I’m honestly not expecting one.
But next year, once I’ve got to know you better, if you don’t there’ll be hell to pay, dammit.

The dirty driveway and grungy house are no more. Got me a new pressure washer for my birthday gift. And a carton of Whoppers that have already been opened at this early morning time. Only 13 more years till 60 when I plan to retire.

**Flamsterette\_X** thanks so much for the birthday wishes! I popped by this morning just to look for the birthday thread. It really made me smile to see “skittles” in a thread that wasn’t talking about candy! 🙂
Thanks for always thinking of the birthday groups!
And Happy Birthday to my fellow October babies!

October 21 here.
I see that there are many Dopers with October birthdays with whom I am proud to share this karass.
