Mrs. G enjoyed reading your last two posts, this one and the one about the Huge Knife. I, being a Chilis fan, knew exactly what was meant by Huge Knife as soon as I read it. I had to explain it to my mother though.

My wife tells me about a restaurant in Lexington, Mass called Chadwicks. It seems they are extraordinarily enthusiastic (read: obnoxious) when it comes to birthdays. They do the happy laughing clapping singing thing and bring you a free sundae, but apparently they also bang a huge gong and announce loudly throughout the entire restaurant that it is SO AND SO's BIRTHDAY!!!!

I just thought I'd warn you so that if you ever happen to eat there on one of your birthdays, neither of you happen to let it slip. I'd hate to see either of you commit spousicide on the other.
