But, but, but... 13 billion kilometers!? What's your MPG? Are you carpooling at least?

Herzlichen Glückwunsch (4.00 / 3)
zum Geburtstag, Nanne!

Re: Herzlichen Glückwunsch (4.00 / 6)
Nanne, i've stolen Fran's post to wish you the same, but now i don't have to switch keyboards to get the umlaut.  I hope your birthday is full of sushi and Caol Ila, just like the olden days.  While most wishes are likely to be many more revolutions around the sun, mine is more simple.

Make each one count, and build on all you've accomplished in the previous revolutions.

Make a great party tonight, bis nächstes Mal in Berlin, und genau wie wir Deutschen sagen, Herzlichen Fuckin' Glückwunsch, mein Freund.

Happy Birthday!  I hope all that orbiting hasn't made you dizzy.
