Every time I interact with any medical person, they ask me when my birthday is.

Is it possible that they are all planning to get something for me?

They just need to know if they have to decipher roman numerals.

The programming language I use, SNOBOL4, also enumerates N objects as 1 through N, rather than 0 through N-1. Much more human friendly.

When you're born, that's obviously your Birth
day. One year later, you celebrate the first anniversary of that birth...

If you did get cake, how many candles would be on it?


My sister bought a small cake with a zero number candle to the hospital each time my wife gave birth.

Wait a minute....what if you were born at night? It's not your birth DAY, it's your birth NIGHT.
