I have no birth date any more.

Commemorating anniversaries. I don't like the practice. Because it seems so stupid. Furthermore, I don't like getting older every year. Best to lose track and thought of one's age. If one lived outside of time, there'd be no reason to celebrate birthdays. Age wouldn't matter.  Maybe that's what I'll start doing. Pretending. That I live outside of time. By refusing to provide my birth date. On any documents. Better to list 'unknown.' If other people want to celebrate their birth dates -- that's fine.  But they aren't going to pull me into their asinine practice. --Jim Broede
