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.
