zimdog's words of wisdom: birthdays

Two weeks ago, trying my best to conjure some clever wording for inscription in the birthday card of a planetarium boss, I decided the following:

"Birthdays are like stars: the more you see, the grander life is."

Maybe I can sell it to Hallmark.

And babies eat stars...

Well, in a way, yes. All the elements came from the stars, and everything around us (including baby food) is made up of elements, so babies do eat stars... and humans.
