<p>Yes, on 19 September, sometime before the birth of Christ, TheDad was born. 
Happy birthday to the Virgo who does not believe in astrology.</p>
<p>Happy Birthday! </p>
<p><em>brings out extremely large cake with lots of candles</em></p>
<p>Happy B-day, TheDad. My H is also a Virgo that is horribly bent out of shape by the mere suggestion of astrology …</p>
<p>Have a splendid Birthday…older by one…glad you shared this with us.</p>
<p>Hey, TheDad. Crawl out from under that Kliban Tennis Shoed Cat comforter (or Roy Rogers and Trigger comforter, it could go either way;)) and face the music. These kind folks have brought you a cyber-cake. Be a shame to waste it.</p>
<p>But are you really older than dirt?</p>
<p>Happy birthday to you. Come on down to the alley! Drinks are on Curm (after all we’ll need something to chase down all of that cake:) )</p>
<p>I think you can only be classified as older than dirt if you gargle dust? I think that is it!</p>
<p>Well, UCLA delivered your birthday present a few days early!</p>
<p>is Johnny Depp coming to the party? Or would that upstage the birthday boy?</p>
<p>Happy Birthday, TheDad!!! The good news is that now that you are about 2000 years old, getting a year older must not seem too bad. Maybe Depp can come if you use makeup to make him look ugly. Than everyone will see how similar you are, but they’ll all think that you are better looking!</p>
<p>Wow TheDad, my friend’s birthday is also today… Happy birthday!</p>
<p>Oh, counselor, a sneak attack, saved only by the fact that you got the date wrong. And I know exactly why you did, too.</p>
<p>But you got the “We Virgo’s don’t believe in astrology” part exactly right.</p>
<p>Sorry we didn’t connect when you were out here.</p>
<p>ConcernedDad, nah, that kind of birthday present would best be delivered on December 3…but I’d take a late present. I did go to the UCLA store today and pick up a new sweatshirt, 25 percent off (5 percent per touchdown scored, to a maximum of five, the Monday after the game). </p>
<p>Klilban comforter? That sounds nice. Btw, 'mudge, I do owe you e-mail. It’s been a bit of a run: all day Saturday was the football game, and Sunday was church/opera/orchestra trip meeting, with bits of work wedged into the corners.</p>
<p>If Depp came to my party…actually, it’ll just be dinner a deux with TheMom…I’d have a photo taken to prove the resemblance.</p>
<p>HB from another Virgo-I share the day w/Pete.</p>
<p>Have a great dinner.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>All the more reason to admire TheDad. Why would we put any stock in Babylonian mysticism?</p>
<p>Happy Birthday!</p>
<p>Hoisting a foamy Latte in your general direction, TheDad. All the best. :)</p>
<p>Happy Birthday, may each year be better than the last.</p>
<p>Thank you all…Mr. B., Driver, Coureur, LAMom…however, I’m still going to watch Aries, my pseudo-elder daughter…what else do you call the elder sister separated before birth from The D?..scramble to get the date right.</p>
<p>I tell you, this one is making me feel truly middle-aged and beyond. Not helped by an X-ray that showed some arthritis. I’m too young to be old.
Why, I can still act 14 if needs be.</p>
<p>TheDad:</p>
<p>Happy B-day! It’s okay to reveal what month you were born. If you were Asian. people might try to guess your age under the pretext of finding out your Chinese zodiac sign.
For someone who does not believe in astrology, a bit of arcane knowledge, gleaned from S. Cardano, the Renaissance mathematician, was also an astrologer. He cast his own horoscope and foretold the day of his death. He died on the day he’d predicted he would; some say he helped nature along so that his horoscope should remain correct. Just goes to show that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.</p>
<p>It’s rude to ask so I won’t, but Happy B-day from me too.</p>
<p>Happy Birthday to my soul brother TheDad: writer, realtor, goofball.</p>
