This is the one that did me in :(

Washing a child's hand's before his first birthday will take away his riches and would live and die poor.

Looks like your OK Zig, it seems its after your Bday thats bad :stupid

"On your birthday (the actual day or days before but
NEVER EVER days AFTER), you have to partake a feast of
good food including longevity noodles (egg noodles) to
symbolise long life with happiness, health and wealth."

In searching, the Noodles deal pops up alot, your supposed to eat them last instead of cake, so say the Chinese :alien

Ziggy went and got superstitious on us. It's not your birthday. It's a time to celebrate your birthday. And maybe it's just an excuse to spend some time with you. Go out and enjoy. Just don't walk under any ladders on the way.

I'm doomed, my wife, no matter much I try to teach her, can never put the silverware on the proper side of the plates :eek  :( . My European heritage taught me table etiquette which in most cases is above par with most Americans....

Still think I'm gonna go for a nice Steak somewhere.... :D  :D I need substance :)

Whether you get a plate of noodles or a slab of meat, set back and enjoy.

Anytime my mother-in-law wants to take me to dinner it's bad luck, especially for my birthday! Ya see; she's Jehovah's Witness and if she's tryin' to buy me dinner, whether for my birthday or whatever, I always have the wife taste my meal first. I suspect that she is still out to get me for what I have done to her baby girl! Ya'd think she would understand that we're married and it WAS only two kids! Sheesh.... :p

Go for the steak. Less sauce to hide the poison in....and don't forget to bring your own steak sauce if you use any. :good

Well we ended up at a place I've never been too called Daves Famous BBQ in Vista..........had a great rack of ribs and some free icecream from the really cute waitress.  Even had a couple yummy Cptn and colas, Jan had some Margs, then we let MIL drive us home. Step FIL was with us too.
Very pleasant eve.
