My Birthday Cake, and a Blogging Break
Ian Lurie Jul 23 2008
Today’s my 40th. My staff made me a Kit-Kat Parthenon birthday cake, complete with worshippers:
They swore it had nothing to do with my age.
Also, I’m going to Nova Scotia for 10 days. For 5 of ‘em I won’t even have cell access. So no blog posts for a bit. I shall return, more sarcastic and bitter than ever.
Oh: All I want for my birthday, by the way, is more subscribers. Get on that will ya?

Will do. :) Happy birthday! Planning to crash a ceilidh while you’re away, or just do a Canadian version of Walden Pond?
Dort’s Cove, about 3 hours from Halifax. No cell coverage, no internet.
Happy Birthday!
That cake is sick!

It’s all downhill from here, but as a cyclist that’s a good thing.
Happy Belated Birthday and I hope you had a nice vacation.
