"most of us can remember a time when a birthday - especially if it was one's own - brightened the world as if a second sun has risen."
- robert lynd (irish essayist and journalist, 1879-1949)

    As an American, my first exposure to "Many Happy Returns" was through The Prisoner, and so I can never read that without thinking of #6's hopes being dashed before he's jettisoned back to The Village. I hope yours is a better place, and wow, 57 candles! That's a lotta lung! Go for it!

    Proficiat! Hope you had a wonderful day, brightened by candles, but especially by the cake they were on and the friends you ate it with.
