Strange times

Well, not to publish it, just to comment on it: Today is my Birthday.

After hitting 30, birthdays take a different meaning, less a reason to celebrate and await gifts, more a time to contemplate and enjoy the time you are in now with you wonderful son and fabulous wife, as well as friends and family.

Some interesting statistics: The most used form for birthday wishes this year was Facebook, and by far. But it was a reminder of the strange times we live in when I got various email messages from robots wishing me a Happy Birthday! Well technically they were automatically generated email synchronized to be sent on my Birthday on the correct time zone, but since no human action was required, I can call them robots! No bad I couldn't send back with a thanks so I thought I'd blog this as a thanks you to all those robots who joined humans in wishing me a Happy Birthday, you all make me blush.....
