Happy Birthday Brother
I’m taking a break from the running commentary on Romeo and Juliet so I can announce that today is my brother’s birthday. I’ll be nice enough not to announce his age. I know I’m not the least bit concerned about being 44 years old, but you never know how other people feel about their age - especially when said people are four and a half years older than you are.
I just thought that rather than spending the day looking for gift baskets that he might or might not appreciate, I might instead encourage a whole bunch of strangers to wish him Happy Birthday.


I’m not a stranger but I will definitely wish him happy birthday. Hopefully, we will not wait until another mass gathering of b-days has come in order to celebrate that.
I’m not bothered by being 49 at all.
Happy Birthday to your brother!
I wish I was 19 again…best time of my life! Approaching 30 and it’s scaring me!
Wow. Approaching 30. I remember that. You’re almost 30 and wishing you were 19; I’d be happy to be back in my early 30s.
Funny world we live in, no?
Happy Birthday to your brother!!! Its a fine age! (Just in case he does want a gift basket, take a peek at what we have available — there are some great gifts: http://www.chesapeakebaygiftbaskets.com.)
