Happy birthday Groucho Marx, and me. I was born on the last birthday he got to celebrate this side of the clouds.

Happiest of birthdays to Guest Editor, Public Domain genius and translation wiz, Shawn Garrett.
Very aptly, Shawn was born on the feast day of Saint Jerome, the patron saint of archivists, scholars, librarians and translators.
