I'm not the type to use the word redonkulous, but that map of Australian time zones is redonkulous.

We do a lot of counting in Japanese at the taiko drumming class I am taking. Only up to ten, though.

Sorry, sorry. Facebook has given me birthday-greeting overload. And I didn't even wish you happy birthday there, so I am double lame.

Happy International Awesome Lady Day. You are an awesome lady.

Aw thanks. I have not being feeling very awesome lately, so that is nice. And also I am totally lame about Facebook birthday greetings, if I can't think of something clever to say I don't post. Which I know is basically crummy.

It's not just you. I've basically given up on the Facebook birthday greeting ritual. It's not that I don't want my friends to have a happy birthday, but I just feel like adding one more to the string of "Happy birthday Biff!" posts doesn't do much. I'm cynical like that.

When a person get hundreds of birthday greetings on Facebook it makes the person feel good.  Don't be a Grinch about Facebook birthday greetings.

Yeah, I sort of want to say "fuck you" to the slate guy.  I like people wishing me well, regardless, and plenty of people only have real friends on their FB.

At work the Barrow radio station does a thing called "The Birthday Program". The announcer comes on, says "welcome to the Birthday Program" and starts answering the phone. Somebody will call up and wish Alice a happy birthday, and then pass the phone to the next person, and they'll do the same. As many as ten people might get on the phone before they hang up. He answers the next call, and the exact same thing happens. I think it's actually pretty cool.

We have a thing like that here where people call in and speak to their friends and family listening in prison.

We have that too.  It's really quite cute.  There's also a celebration section of the local paper where people wish others a happy birthday or anniversary or whatever.  It's so old fashined that it's kind of adorable.

I don't think you'd get too many arguments against that position.
