Maybe we should take a lead from women. Once you hit 39 you don't have birthdays, just anniversaries.

Why would I need a soldering iron, I already have four! If they don't burn how am I going to know thery're working!

Speaking of burning Lisa just read the first line, That's gonna hurt!!!

November 26th here - noticed that most of the responses seem to be for winter months, wondering if there's a link between the birthday month and the hobby - maybe people with birthdays in winter tend to be bought "indoor" stuff like trains? Just a thought!

I could have sworn we just did this in November. December is my month. I could use a CabForward for my birthday and a Challenger for Christmas.[:D] Not really. The information here is worth more than the two combined. Happy New Year.

BIRTHDAY MONTH
Posted by grayfox1119 on Friday, January 7, 2005 5:22 PM
I remember way back in the late 60's when I was taking a college course, the prof. said that statistically, the class would have at least ONE birthday in every month. There were 32 people in the class, so I figured that, "no way" could every month be covered with only 32 people, that would be only 37.5% chance. Well, I was wrong. Every month was covered.
Now we have many more forum members, so every month WILL be spoken for, but I thought it would be interesting to see which month has the most MRR BD's. Hey, it might come under some astrological sign !!!!
