A Year Younger

Harvey's dad was born at 11:55 pm on December 31, 1923.  Now, there really doesn't appear to be anything special about that particular time, or date of birth, right?  Well, that's what I thought too...

While cutting his hair a couple of days ago, Harvey was telling me that he remembers his dad always had an interesting little thing to say to people about his birthdate.

He would say,  "If my mother could have waited another five minutes, for me to be born, I would have been a year younger!"

When you stop and think about that statement for a second, it does actually make a whole lot of sense... and laughable at the same time!
