Yesterday was Lindsay's birthday so Dr. Petersen taught us the Greek birthday song. Here's the rough translation:
(Long may) you live, ________,
and (may you live) many years.
May you grow old
with white hair.
(May you) spread out everywhere
the light of knowledge
and may everybody say
there (she/he is), a wise woman/man.
Cool song, eh? A number of people remarked that if one were to stop after the 5th line, there'd probably be trouble. We went to Zesto Angelo's for a quick birthday dinner. Zesto Angelo's is, despite the name, neither Greek nor Italian. It's a real old-school diner spot about a block from the school, with tasty food for low prices. I had the cheeseburger and soda and my total order was less than $3.50. Yet, the patty had a great fresh taste to it, no freezerburn or 1000-cow homogeneity.
