made the sensational claim that:

UNIQUE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION FOR SPACE STATION RESIDENT

I don't get it -- what's unique about the fortieth or fiftieth guy to
celebrate a birthday in space?

First time we're probably gonna get a nice letter out of it?

That's IT -- and I'll celebrate every time -- now THAT'S a treat I can look
forward to.

The chance of having a non integral number of birthdays within a given
period
is rather smaller than you seem to think. ;-)

Probably by half.

Is this the first birthday on the ISS? It will be unique birthday for Ed
Lu as he will be in space for it.

I guess the Hawaiian (or aloha) shirts?? Beyond that it's just
more
PAO fluff.

So... random thoughts that you have late at night. Who pays for the
shirts that the team will wear back on Earth? If it's an official PAO
function, then they are uniforms. :-)

The flight controllers probably wish... :-)

Nope, the shirts for the celebration yesterday were strictly BYO.

Would never had worn one when I was younger. Considered "loud". Anyway ,
getting older and really don't care I buy one every year when I go to Sea
World. Beautiful shirts. "Normal" for Hawaiian tourists. Still little
stranfe for Orlando.
