Is it REALLY Red Menace's birthday today?

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

It's apparently Red Menace's birthday today. But it's listed as 1 April 1917.

So wake up Red Menace and tell us all.

Is it REALLY your birthday today?

And if so

(Wrong party, fool!)

May the Red Menace continue to menace

Yes, comrades, it is indeed my birthday, and I am quite drunk, having delved into my personal stock of Stolichnaya set aside for special occasions. If only my young nephew would stop playing that annoying song--"They say it's your birthday, it's my birthday too," or some such repetitive rubbish. I fear I may soon go mad!!! Quite fortunately he gave me a cunning new device called an Eye-Pod, and I have loaded it up with some of my favorite Shostakovich string quartets. And now back to my Stolichnaya!!!

I BET YOU'RE HAVING A GOOD TIME (far too good for a ninety-year-old).

All the very best, though.

I saw 'Lord of War'** last night.................sure hope that wasn't Red's Uncle (the General) that got blown to bits when he cranked the ignition of that new Rolls. Oh, never mind -- on second thought, guess that General was Ukrainian.

** what a great time-elapsed scene where the locals from the village in Sierra Leone strip down to it's ribs that Russian AU-16 turbo-prop cargo plane overnight.
