    I know as much about Finnish as a hedgehog knows about horse-racing. But according to Google, that means "Happy Birthday, my dear friend."

    Gracious!
    We each owe you for something as individuals, and maybe some of us can repay it.
    We all owe as a group, and can't possibly repay it.
    I. personally, owe you for duck-butts, and I'd be happy to repay that, if only you would accept some package of those in return! <grin!>

    Please be happy, please be content, please be safe. You will never get a true measure of where the love is coming from.
