Happy Birthday Mr. Sakai,
Don't work to hard today.
Were you born on Memorial Day?

Thank you. It's been a great birthday weekend. Sharon and I were away at the National Cartoonists Society Reuben Awards weekend, and had a wonderful time. We got back very early this morning.
I don't know if I was born on Memorial Day. They don't celebrate it in Japan. It was May 25, 1953. You can do the math.
