Happy 40th Birthday, Reinhard!

Post by la_loser » Wed Oct 02, 2013 12:46 pm

So if my calendar is accurate, this is a very special day for the guy who's behind these Everyday Systems! Happy 40th, my dear. May you celebrate a big ole very Special S day! I say, go for the extra helpings, a couple of snacks and a huge slice of cake. You deserve it.

Enjoy your day with that beautiful family of yours!

Signed,
One of your forever grateful followers (Geesh, it sounds like we are a cult, huh!)

Really? We share a birthday (sort of -- I am a lot older)! No wonder this system makes so much sense to me! Many Happy Returns!!!

Thank you all! So far so good! My kids gave me 40 minutes of peace and quiet this morning and my coworkers wrapped my entire workstation in black (including my "agile" sprint cards!). Off to grab a copy of the kabbalah, now that I'm permitted to read it...

Did not know about the pre 40 prohibition on the Kabbala

Happy Birthday Reinhard!

Now that I'm more than halfway to my second forty I can say that all mention of 40 being over the hill is nonsense.

When I turned forty my coworkers draped the whole area with black streamers and had some other morbid stuff around. Bear in mind, I'm a nurse and it was a patient care area! Actually, the patients were all in on it.
