Happy Birthday

Yup, May 1 is my birfday. Just a little self-indulgent thought for the day, to do with Pop culture:
I'm grateful for all the strange little coincidences, minor twists of fate, random happenstances, and bizarre sequences that have led to the tastes I have. Much like everyone else on the planet, I am convinced I have much better taste than anyone else. Beyond that, I am grateful to have seen what I have seen, heard what I heard, and felt the things I've felt. For my birthday, I'm intended to do some Scandinavian shopping, some Brazilian eating, watch a french movie, and have a dutch beer. Let's see how it pans out, eh?
