Patti Page's Tennessee Waltz reminds why I'm glad that rock booted old "too close to the mic" pop. The Como is good (as expected) in his laid back way and the Autry certainly lasted (though that's a lot of holiday holdover). But that darned Phil Harris song is so weird and not funny but also not "not interesting". What could the Thing be? I just don't know. And it wouldn't be BEP (Before Elvis Presley) if there weren't at least two version of one song. This time pro golfer Don Cherry and heartthrob Fisher split Thinking of You.
Happy birthday, Althouse. As your attorney and physician, I advise you to get at least lightly tipsy, if not thoroughly drunk. But for God's sake, leave the ether alone.
Happy Birthday, Ann. My daughter Lauren celebrates her 32nd today, so we'll drink a toast tonight to all the 1/12ers.

The Thing was a 1951 horror movie very popular in the day. James Arness of Gunsmoke fame played his first role "The Thing", a monster who never spoke a word.

Eligible for socialized retirement benefits in one year. Good thing there's not means testing, yet.
And now we are 61. Happy Birthday. Going to slide down a hill? (Over-the-hill allusions unintended, truly!)
Happy birthday! And here's to many, many more!
A great new year full of new accomplishments has started. Enjoy it.
Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday!

How old are you?
It's my birthday too, yeah

I am a lawyer too
With a midwestern connection - I am a 1975 graduate of the University of Michigan law school.
Happy birthday! Be proud of the year past, and ambitious for the year to come.
Thursday birthdays are the best - four day weekend here we come!
As I said before, happy 61.
Enjoy the day and another productive year.
Being elderly doesn't suck nearly so much as one is led to believe. Enjoy the rest.
Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday, and best regards!

But boy, if there was a list of Beatles songs I never want to hear again, "Birthday" is right near the top. . .
I believe it's Rush Limbaugh's birthday, too, and he was born the same year you were - 1951.
It is my wife's birthday as well. Happy birthday.
Dissing Patty Page? Heathens!
Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Ann-iversary!
Suggest you find a good movie at a theater and request the "senior discount" rate for your ticket! Tinker-Tailor-Spy is fun.
Happy Birthday, Ann!

Enjoy some exesc on your birthday.
Hope you had (and are still having) a wonderful birthday here with us in the south.
Happy Birthday Ann! And may the Packer bring you a great birthday gift on Sunday!
Happy Birthday, Ann. I'm not sure how to celebrate. I think I'll buy some white lithium grease at Amazon. As good a way as any.
