We aren’t really “birthday people” here – not much for fanfare and not rich enough for anyone to find a brand-new vehicle with a bow on it in the driveway. Today Der Bingle official becomes a senior citizen, and he says he’s happy about it, considering the alternative. For one month and one day, I will be one year younger than he is.

Of course, she might say that there’s no need for helium balloons since the candles will make enough heat for hot air balloons.

Maybe I’ll tie a bow on a roll of duct tape and leave it in the driveway.
