(This was written about Jon’s Grandpa’s (and Great-Auntie Marcia’s) 70th birthday dinner we went to a week ago. We went to Rodney’s Oyster House where Jon proceeded to demolish a plate of steamed clams (in lieu of his favourite shellfish, mussels—alas, unavailable that night), a fish-and-chips entrée with salad, and a slice of a homemade, chocolate birthday cake (snuck in with the assistance of staff). Burp.—L)
Grandpa Suzuki was 70 years old.
Daddy brought in the cake and candles.
I didn’t have mussles I just had clams. and when Daddy brought in the cake and candles we startted to sing Happy Birthday. Then we ate some cake and The cake was yummy.

Wow, the good doctor is 70!
I remember when ‘The Nature of Things’ was the best science and nature show on TV (because it was unique) and it was mandatory viewing in our house.
Hey, Jon! Did you like the clams better than the mussels?
I asked Jon which he liked better, clams or mussels, and without hesitation he answered “mussels”.
