:) Happy birthday, Clarissa! Your age is now divisible by 7, which is always a treat. And the next one will be the square of an integer, which is an even bigger treat. And then, a prime number! (also happens to be my current age)
Конечно, Вы меня пленили Лучами своего задора А может быть, улыбкой, или Решимостью торреадора. Изящны, как фламенко звуки, Студенты ценят пыл Ваш страстный Служенья верного науке. Ей богу, Вы во всем прекрасны!
Happy birthday! Following up on the post of a prior commenter, at your next birthday your age will be the smallest number which is both a square number and a triangular number (unless you count the number 1, of course.)
Since you like to debate issues it seems appropriate that your birthday is the feast day of St. Apollonius the Apologist, a martyr whose apologia, or defense of the faith, is considered one of the most priceless documents of the early Church. Looking forward to more interesting comments in the coming year. Happy Birthday. Canukistani
P.S. The total number of words in the Bible is 774746. When the digits are added up, we get 35.
Thank you, Amanda! I'm enjoying but my husband got a heat stroke because of being in the sun for too long, so now he is sick. :-( For us, Northern people, Midwestern summers are too harsh.
Unfortunately I have no skill at maths or languages (I'm a Classics student and very much appreciated your post on the necessity of Latin) but I hope you have a lovely birthday!
Happy birthday, Clarissa! (In a completely unimaginative and non-mathematical way - oh, and since someone else already played the biblical card, this theologian can't even go there...). Enjoy the rest of your celebratory weekend.
Of course, today is also the anniversary of Paul Revere's famous ride warning the colonists that the British were coming. Of course I would not have remembered this without having had to memorize in high school the Longfellow poem beginning
"'Twas the eighteenth of April in seventy-five Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that fateful day and year Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere."
Arabic (with an Egyptian slant). It means what you think! However, it's not specific to birthdays, but what you say to anyone celebrating a holiday. It's difficult to translate literally, but is something like "May you be well in every year". To males it would be kol sana winta Tayyib.

Thirties are awesome -- enjoy, and best wishes!
I hope you can read acrostic by Russian font.
Конечно, Вы меня пленили
Лучами своего задора
А может быть, улыбкой, или
Решимостью торреадора.
Изящны, как фламенко звуки,
Студенты ценят пыл Ваш страстный
Служенья верного науке.
Ей богу, Вы во всем прекрасны!
Happy Birthday and a great weekend! Wish you to find more interesting books too.

I would like to add that 35 is 5-th pentagonal number and 5-th tetraedronal number.
Thank you, everybody, you are the best.
Leah Jane, thank you for being the first to congratulate me!

This is fascinating, Northern Gaijin.
I have never received such a great number of super intellectual Birthday wishes before.
Happy birthday! I hav3 no fun facts for you, but I do hope you are greatly enjoying the day!

Here's to many more blogging years!
С днём рождения, доченька!!!!

Thank you, Anonymous parents. :-) :-)

Happy birthday to you. (I know I'm late). Have fun.
Thank you, Elisabeth!
Something good can never be too late, KT. Thank you!
Happy birthday, Clarissa!

Had it been 76 instead of 75 it would have been a full anniversary. :-)
kol sana winti Tayyiba!
Thank you! I think. :-)
What language is this?
Arabic (with an Egyptian slant). It means what you think! However, it's not specific to birthdays, but what you say to anyone celebrating a holiday. It's difficult to translate literally, but is something like "May you be well in every year". To males it would be kol sana winta Tayyib.
(Belated) happy birthday! Hope you had a good one :)
