That's nice of people. And a happy birthday to Pixie. (And Bill Sables
bles too, who's another one born today. And another one, a few years earlier, was Charles Schulz, creator of Peanuts, so that's not bad.

Here's a song I wrote once about time, which seems appropriate for a birthday:

Well, my feet were getting weary,
and the hour was getting late,
so I sat down by the side of the road
and I tried to concentrate,
and I knew that I was not alone,
but I did not know for why -
then the flowers beside the side of the road
they looked me in the eye.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.

I was tired, so tired,
I was tired as a man can be,
and the flowers beside the side of the road
looked just as tired as me.
But I heard a ringing in my head,
and I heard a singing sound,
and the flowers beside the side of the road
were singing right along.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.

Well, life can teach you wisdom,
Till you know just where you're at,
Yes, life can teach you many things,
But there's more to life than that.
There's singing and there's dancing,
and there's whiskey in the glass,
and flowers beside the side of the road
to see you as you pass.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.
Time alone will tell,
time will have its way,
but the flowers beside the side of the road,
they bloom for just today.
