Happy Belated Birthday to Alert Reader Hank K.
I hate it when I forget birthdays. I hate it worse when it’s a good friend’s. And the worst of all is when I talk to that person, on their birthday . . . and forget to wish them a happy birthday.
Alert reader Hank K. had his birthday yesterday. Here’s hoping it was a good one.


Happy Birthday, Hank K., and thanks for loaning Patterico your Dog Trainer.

I gave up and started using Google calendar. The email reminder system is very nice.

Pat, if you are going to send congratulations to every loyal and alert reader on his birthday, you’ll have such greetings for every day of the year!

No worries here, Patterico, my birthday isn’t today.

I believe “Alert Reader Hank K.” is a close friend and colleague of Patterico’s. Close enough at least to tell him how fortunate he is in his marriage.

NK, does that mean I’m not as close and appreciated by our host as “Alert Reader Hank K?” I wonder if I could sue for hurted feelings?
