Posted by: frinklin at January 25, 2006 10:15 PMThanks, buddy! I prefer to think of the news above in a positive light: Obviously, it's my birthday that lifts the gloom that hangs over us all.
I'll forward that link on to my cousin, who was born on January 24th. He'll love it.

Posted by: ensie at January 26, 2006 09:37 AMCool. So, you can buy me beer, right?
Posted by: Richard at January 26, 2006 09:37 PMCarl: Right on!
Ensie: Thank you, my dear! My birthday was perhaps less than riveting, but it was good nonetheless.
Richard: Sure, I can buy you beer. You'll have to come here to pick it up, though.
Posted by: Mediocre Fred at January 27, 2006 08:41 AMBelated birthday gift(!): a request for a post regarding this and similar news of the last several years. I would write it myself, except I remember how each of us did in econ.

Your request is noted. I'll get to it one of these days.
