indeed hope you have a wonderful birthday Ereneth. and yay for 16

. Americans always make a big deal about 16th birthdays. I never quite understood why.
It is called the "Sweet Sixteenth" If Rainer is not mistaken.
The Benchmark Birthday ages are: 13, 16, 18/21. 13 Is because you are a teenager, 16 because it's like a "Halfway" point. And 18/21 is when you become an adult depending on where you are. Even ifyou become an Adult at 18, 21 is still a bechmark, because then wherever you go, you are an adult.
Hope this clears things up

Rainer is Canadian, By the Way

And of course, Happy 16th to Ereneth. Have a
