Oh Crap! Uh, Happy Birthday to Us, Happy Birthday…

If my home state keeps this kind of stuff up it’s going to be hard to make fun of Florida:

There’s no "Sorry I missed your birthday" card big enough to make up for this one.

   

Just
about nobody remembered that the town of Roxboro reached an important
milestone this year _ its 150th anniversary of incorporation.

   

"I can’t come up with any legitimate reason other than it just slipped our minds," Mayor Steve Joyner said.

   

Joyner
noticed the oversight in July, when he realized a letter from the N.C.
League of Municipalities was commemorating the city’s long-elapsed
birthday.

   

"It would have been a great marketing slogan or
something to recognize this is the 150th anniversary," Joyner said.
"I’m hoping we’ll remember this (coming) year."
