Another year older, nevertheless.
Yes, gentle friends, it is that time again -- and, for a wonder, my
birthday falls on neither 500-Mile Race Day nor Memorial Day!
I am now about twenty years older than I ever expected to be. And
there's still no Lunar settlement and no Orbital Hilton. You people
need to get to work on that. I'm too old to learn Mandarin.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBERTA !
ReplyDeleteTIME DISTANCE AND SPEED ARE ALL RELATIVE
MAY YOU CONTINUE TO GO FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH
MANY HAPPY RETURNS AND BEST WISHES TO ALL HANDS AND ALL PAWS !
And the world is a better place for your twenty extra orbits... Here's to many more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Roberta!
And it's very nice of Indianapolis to stage a race in honor of your birthday...
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Ms. X!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to You, Bobbi!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the weekend, and the well-deserved adulation and thanks for another year of thinking-mans snark, humor, and good old plain talk.
May the wind be ever at your back...

And happy birthday to you

ReplyDeleteYeah, turned 63 on the 11th, never thought I'd see it either. Concur on space accommodations, but Heinlein's Mr. Harrelson never showed up...
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can feel better about it if you express it in Celsius. When Tom Lehrer was 53, he described it as 11 Celsius.
ReplyDeleteI would be happy with a robot that did housework. But I'm afraid all we are going to see is rampaging killer robots.
ReplyDeleteBelated best wishes for the happiest of days
ReplyDeleteBelated happy birthday, ma'am, and many happy returns of the day.
ReplyDeleteJohninMd, think of it this way: Next year we'll be 40 again. (40 Hex, but hey.)
