Thanks. But despite what the Interweb says, I wasn’t born in January.  :)

There was a picture of you in one of the alembic facebooks earlier this week wishing you a happy birthday. So I may just go over there and tell them it's wrong. :-)

It's ok.  There are so many really nice responses posted everywhere that I'm just gonna go with it.  In fact, I may look into changing my date of birth. ;)

I look at it this way not many people can claim more than one birthday so I say celebrate them all.

That's true.  And at the speed I'm aging I wouldn't be surprised to discover that each year now counts as two  Yikes!

True story; Barbara Eden changed hers. Or rather she just didn't correct the error... and let everyone believe the 1931 on her birth certificate was really 1934. Thataway, she didn't get charged for the bonus years in 1964 when the 20th Century Fox deal came along... still 30.


You're only as old as you feel, right? I think bass players age like in dog-years or something. I'm like... 392 now.
