As long as it's not MY father, I don't care! And we've missed that by ten days now, so I'm cool, especially since I hear on the grapevine that your dad is pretty darned cool in his own right. Plus I think 8/8/10 would be a fantastic birthdate, although my husband pointed out that if he held out for another month and was born on *his* birthday, his birthdate would be 8/9/10 (using British/NZ ways of writing dates).
