Happy Birthday!

I was remarking to Nat this morning that one of the great things about being a writer is that, unlike mathematicians and world conquerors, you're not over the hill after 25.

Oh, and for that matter, Genghis Khan may have conquered the Mongols by his 30s, but it took him another 20 years to conquer most of the known world. So it's not even true for conquerors.

Enjoy the birthday, and in 2 years don't forget to hold an "Alexander the Great is Dead!" party.
