Happy Birthday Adina

[lassie]

Sorry it's late Adina, but hope you had a terrific birthday

[adina]

I'm coming! I'm coming!


I couldn't come earlier to thank you the birthday wishes, but now I am here and this thread is awesome and it was so good to read it and I would like to say a big "THANK YOU!"    You are very very kind.

Life decided I should have a non-fun birthday, booo!, but I am going to fool it and I celebrate my birthday now!! First of all I lick the Petruchio portrait off the cake of Stama and then unwrap Count Adhemar!
Okay, what's next?
No...no...no, Much-inferior-officer, I can't eat that cake. I am on a strict diet, I don't eat science fiction cakes at all. Umm, and I am sorry, but your name is not on the guest list. And your friend's either. Please, go home. <D'oh, I didn't think I should explain to John Smith what "keep it quiet" means. >
Ah, no, Zoo-Magazine Rufus, you must stay. You are very welcome! And please, smile!!!!!!!!
Let's have fun! Come on, Larry, entertain us, tell us some of your dirty jokes!


Thank you for all the wonderful pictures and I enjoyed the cap-its very very much.




I post this photo because (this is one of my favourites) and it was taken on Rufus's 40th birthday. Hah.

Well, this is the moment when I look at Carlo with sad puppy eyes and I hope he will buy lots of ice cream - HAPPY END

Happy belated Birthday!

Thank you. Ah, Laila, all people who were born on that day arrived so late to the birthday parties this year? (Maybe Septimus Hodge was able to explain this strange example of determinism. The Distracted Pisces Theorem. )

Sorry to be so late here... some distracting thoughts.

Now everyone thinks we don't like celebrating. But we DO! Well, I do. - Happy Birthday to you, Laila!

I hope Adina gets here soon! Her birthday balloon is losing air!

Doctor Hood: I am not sure I can help. But that's what scientists are for: let's solve the problem! An extended birthday party needs special balloons...



You know, Rachel, rubber is tighter than many other materials. But it still has holes — holes that are so tiny that air leaks out very slowly. Some gases leak through rubber faster than others. Hydrogen and helium gases are made of small molecules that can sneak through tiny holes easier than the larger molecules of nitrogen and oxygen, the main gases that make up air. So helium leaks out of a rubber balloon faster than air does.



All I have to do is invent an extremely lazy molecule which is too reluctant to force itself through the holes. It might be named after me. I create the Eternal Birthday Balloon filled with Hood Gas.



Rachel: What's next?
Doctor Hood: Accepting the Nobel Prize.

Hood Gas and the Distracted Pisces Theorem I love your science, Adina!

[rueful]

  Love all the new terms, especially the Distracted Pisces Theorem! 



Just like you, Hood, to come up with a complicated solution that will win you a prize.
I keep telling you, just go back, pick up your balloon, and come back before you left.  Simple.
