Today is Ludwig's 35th birthday. I used to think his birthday was Hallowe'en, but I think now that it's the 24th. I promise I'll get it straightened out for sure by his 36th. [edit: It is the 24th. Thanks, dwill49965.]Here's what was going on in the world when Ludwig rolled off the factory floor in Hanover:
- It was the last day of the Yom Kippur War
- "Rocky" Lane, the voice of Mr. Ed, died
- The number one song in the country was "Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight and the Pips
He shares his birthday with a bunch of people who I've never heard of, except for the acclaimed rapper Madlib.
Happy birthday, Ludwig!

Aww...Happy Birthday Ludwig!! Valentina sends you lots of hugs and kisses your way. Honk Honk!
Happy B-day Mr. Camper Van Beethoven! Here's to many more.
Happy birthday Ludwig! You really should see crack in the ground and hole in the ground as well as something else called big hole. We haven't seen big hole yet. Come on out, we'd love to have you. Great hot springs around here and wonderful geology. Baby's due around the end of January, a little girl named Juniper. :)

Ludwig also shares his birthday with EP! Nice!
And, a little off topic, I have to say, less than $2 a gallon where you are! We are just over $3 still. Wonder what it will be like when Ludwig turns 40!
Happy Birthday Ludwig!
Thanks for the well-wishes, all.
bb's d: The clarity of my prose is slipping. What I was saying is that, the $0.40/gal one paid in 1974 is, after adjustment for inflation, ~$1.80/gal today, which I thought was close enough to our (viz., Missoula's) current ~$2.50/gal for blogging purposes.
Same birthday?! Cool...not the same year though, right?
Alright,

Ah, got it.
Ludwig has EP by 8 years.
