Happy Birthday, Jourdan!



We all chipped in to get you a little something. Since you travel allot, the Krug Trunk de Blanc was what we had in mind. It's so portable!



But at just over $60,000 we decided a more prudent gift would be in order. Lady red found just the thing - the Krug Escape Artists - which hold only one or two bottles but are a steal at $18,000 a pop. She couldn't decide on the color so we got you all three: the Blue Trunk is set up for cigar lovers, the Red Trunk is for poker players, and the Silver contains a Samsung T9 MP3 video player with Bluetooth, a JBL “On Tour Plus” sound system, and a bottle of Krug Rosé.



It's not a proper birthday without cake. Fay created another one of her culinary masterpieces, a lovely mille-feuilles cake (so there would be enough for all).


I chose a truss from one of my rhodos, R. keleticum, especially for you.



Happy Birthday, we love ya!

    Of course the suave man of international intrigue get all the beautiful women taking care of him on his birthday. That's OK as long as I get some cake.

    Happy birthday, Jourdan!

      Happy Birthday ... 47 eh, youngin'?

      Pssst: it gains speed as the numbers climb, just like a speedometer. I'm approaching the speed of light as we speak :D

      I do not have t-shirts older than Jourdan. If anything I'd have diapers that are older, and we got rid of all those...

      Happy birthday Jourdan! Fifty is closer than it looks. Trust me...

      Yeah, I think I remember hearing 'Happy 50th B'day' just about 10 years ago.

      Sigh.
