Happy birthday, Dad

It's that time of year again. The days are noticeably growing shorter, and Dad is getting older. I was trying to think how we used to celebrate Dad's birthday growing up, but I'm drawing a blank. Anyone else remember any details?

Anyway, happy birthday! And have a wonderful year.

Roy - I thought you were going for a little poem there, but "shorter" and "older" just don't quite do it.

Anyway, I didn't get any older today than I do every other day, and I'm the youngest I'll be for the rest of my life, so I can't complain about being 47.

Dad

Quarante-sept! What!?

As for celebrating, some sort of chocolate cake, I presume.

I remember a knife in the cake incident, but don't remember whose birthday it was for.

You're right. You definitely can't complain about being forty-seven.

But that's only because you're 51! (just thought I'd help out the mathematically impaired audience)

I think I prefer 47.

The bigger the better! (Maybe it works that way with age numbers too.)
