Let’s place a marker here.
On this day in 1971 in Phoenix, Arizona, something very precidented happened.
Yeah, what I said. Very precidented. A bunch of drunk Marines took over a bar and sang the Corps’ hymn very loudly, daring any Army, Navy or Airforce weenies to step up. If there were some Navy Seals present, there might have been a decent fight, but otherwise, the other services walked out of the bar with their butts in their hands.
Also, a screaming little pink primate thrashed around while his mother *and* his father looked on. It’d been done before in the same damn hospital two years earlier.
So, today’s not that special.
But around February 10th, 1971, in Japan, on the slopes of Mt. Fuji . . . in a rest hut about halfway up the mountain . . . well, let’s just say that it wasn’t entirely a family scene. An Air Force pilot and his wife were, um, getting it on!- and Fuji-San bore it as stoically as that grand mountain ever has and ever shall. But two gaijin doin’ the nasty on the mountainside - well, I hope that doesn’t happen every day. ‘Cause then it wouldn’t be special.

2006-1971= 35
Congratulations!
In the house where I grew up, candles were lit in binary (geeks, I know)!
So your cake would have 6 candles lit like this (*=lit, -=unlit):
* - - - * *
The year of your birth, I also would’ve had 3 lit candles:
* * *
… confused the heck out of my friends, since I was not 3 years old! But nice now that I’m in the 6 candle range, few people can actually cypher out my actual age (* - * - * -). They just say, “why didn’t you light them all?” which is fun to answer with “because I’m not 63″.
Like I said…GEEK!
HAPPY Birthday!

Okay, that might have been one of the more disturbing ways to state that it’s your birthday. Funny, but disturbing! Thanks for the laugh, and happy (belated) birthday!
(Ya’ know, we get full birthday WEEKS around these parts. Hint, hint.)
