    Haha! One of my co-workers just reminded me that tomorrow is my b-day. I didn't realize that today was the 11th.

    It was 12th here. :)

    I too forgot my birthday. My wife and kids had to remind me.:blush:

    Thanks ravi - my wife and kids are threatening to each make me a cake (knowing that I don't really like cake.)

    Right, you know damned well the cake isn't really for you. Put in earplugs, then make them sing happy birthday to you. If you're going to suffer a placebo birthday, you might as well make it a practical joke on them. Clap when they're finished. Cap it off with , "yay, I can't wait til next year", then hide or trash every piece of bread in the house, go back to the internet. And as Marie Antoinette said, "let them eat cake"....!.. :rolleyes:

    A good birthday celebration is all about the symbolism, est là, non?

    BTW, Happy Birthday......

    You've heard of a "French Farce", haven't you?

    Wouldn't you say my whole post qualified as one?

    Well, other than the, "Happy Birthday", I meant that.

    In the mind of a child of ten, the statement, "let them eat cake" could be an attempt to help. For someone that has never done without bread or cake, it offers a simplistic, but naive solution, to a problem not fully understood.

    I didn't mean any harm by it either - I was just listening to some "stuff you missed in history class" podcasts last night and that was covered in one. Then this morning I see it mentioned, so I felt the urge to comment.

    I think I speak for all of us, when I say that without you these forums would be missing a very informative man with a monobrow and concentrated look upon his face :)
    Happy birthday man, enjoy it.
