HAPPY BIRTHDAY! HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Seeing as how it's the Year of the Wooden Horse, let's all remember that if one's enemies leave one on the beach as a parting gift, the proper response is to raise a rousing cheer for what a terrific sacrifice to Poseidon it will make when set afire at low tide, and then go home, leaving the thing there unguarded.
