Happy Birthday!

To my big brother...he's Jesus Years Old! That's 33 for all you heathens out there.

For the ever more confused:

27 is your rock star year. Why? Because some of your more notable rock stars died at the age of 27. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Shannon Hoon (actually, he had JUST turned 28) Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison... The idea is that anyone truly great burns out at their best. As, supposedly, did those on preceeding list. People often say that 27 was their best year. There are also some that figure in the whole Saturn Cycle/Astrology angle. I'm stil not clear on that one and welcome any education anyone has to offer...Anyway, I know 27 was one of my best years to date. It was the year when I felt the fog start to lift and I stopped feeling so damn sad all the damn time.

33. Your Jesus year. Jesus's age at the time of his death. At his best, then WHAM. a kiss from Judas, some "I don't know that guy" from Peter, and the next thing we know Mel Gibson is an Anti-semite from a long line of Anti-semites.

But I digress. In short, another benchmark after all the good benchmarks have passed.

So, Happy Birthday BC! In another 2 years, it'll be your Presidential Year.

And now you've got that to look forward to. Which is nice.
