a) happy Diwali! it's the hindu new year, and now there's only three days left before I can eat meat again. At which point we have to go back to Salathai, 'cause that looked good.

b) happy 21st, Lana! Remember, you're not short, you're efficient.

c) happy 19th, Paige! There's really nothing I can say here that hasn't already been said.
