wow, dylrob, i'm so sorry ! that sounds like a horrible thing to go through any day, it definitely shouldn't have happened on your birthday. that's it then, dylrob, here is a coupon good for one make-up birthday, on the day of your choice. use it when you're in a good mood sometime, and don't forget the cake.

Apparently those responses are not in the script.

"we've got hydoelectric storm gutters" brilliant !! i'm going to have those installed here too.
