Happy Birthing Day Esmerlypse! :nanaparty:

I know birthday's can sometimes be depressing so here's some light entertainment to get you through the big day;

What was the average age of a cave man?
Stone Age!

What goes up and never comes down?
Your age!

What party game do rabbits like to play?
Musical Hares!

What did the bald man say when he got a comb for his birthday?
Thanks. I'll never part with it!

Growing old is inevitable. Growing up is optional.

The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once.

A well adjusted woman is one who not only knows what she wants for her birthday, but even knows what she's going to exchange it for.

The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.

Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened.

A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.

Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the people who have the most live the longest.

A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun. Enjoy the trip!

You were born an original. Don't die a copy.

Fred: I was going to buy you a handkerchief for your birthday.
Harry: That was a kind thought. But why didn't you?
Fred: I couldn't find one big enough for your nose.

When is your birthday?
17th January.
What year?
Every year!

17th January.

Every year!

Reminds me of a question that I ask:
"How many Birthdays did you have?"

One!

(You just celebrate it every year.)

Thanks, Sea! Yup, it's my 38th. (Uh, what's a bevy?)

And thanks to you too, Menolly, for remembering!

Oh, and Menolly.......would you like a piece of this birthday cake?

Heh.

You and EL share the day with someone very special to me. I'll never forget.

...gag...choke...sputter...

Make sure I get a piece from the end, and not the middle where that...that...that letter is defacing the rest of a gorgeous looking cake.

Yep! When I was in year 9 our English teacher used to do weekly spelling tests. I, at the time, was very good at writing in runic (runes) and so used to write on the side of my school folder the words each week in runic.

BAD SEA! But I'm not stupid--purposefully got the odd one or two words wrong.

That said, in this country it's actually spelt "bevy":

bevvy
bevy (colloq)
noun bevvies, bevies

1. Alcoholic drink, or an individual alcoholic drink.
2. A drinking session.

I'd spell it with 2 V's simply for pronunciation purposes...with one, it looks like it should be pronounced "beevey" *shrug* Not important really.

As an outsider looking in, I can see both spellings and accept either one.

Sea's, as the original word only has one "v," and as an abbreviation it makes sense not to add a letter.

Av's, for exactly the reason he stated, pronunciation.

In either case, since it's a new term to me, I would go with the flow of wherever I was that was using it. Should I choose to use it here, I would most likely go with Av's spelling though.

Happy Birthday All! I shall toss back a plethora of bevies for you all later!

Hee hee....I don't know if that's true or not. I just wanted to get in on the nitpicking. 'Cause it's fun.
