Okay, anyone who saw me Monday night in Austin with the waitresses from Smokey Bones Pub needs to know I only did it in self-defense. It was my birthday -- a significant one and I'm not telling which.

I had two choices:
A - Have the wait staff sing Happy Birthday to me and interrupt the New England-vs-Baltimore football game or
B- Pose for the photo wall surrounded by all the skimpily clad waitresses.

Since I want to live for my next birthday and feared the fans might stone me if their game was interrupted, I opted for the latter.

Now, the picture is all over my office and no one believes I was really in Austin on business. Sigh... I should have taken my chances with the singing.

Happy Friday to all!
