Here is a true birthday story: one year my officemate and her husband got her mother a beautiful piece of jewelry for her birthday, while her father got her a pair of Birkenstock sandals. When he found out what they were giving her, he pleaded with his daughter and son-in-law to switch presents, and to this day the birthday girl thinks her romantic husband gave her a beautiful piece of jewelry and her daughter and son-in-law gave her nice, sensible footwear.
On the birthday theme, Rockstar Tailor wrote the following skit with some help from Hardingfele and me, Famous Hat. (The "Hammer" character was my idea while all the bad puns are Hardingfele's fault.) She is presenting this for her school talent show, so I will modify some of the action to keep the ending a surprise.
ePlush Birthday Skit
The Yorkie, the Lioness, the Persian cat and the Hammer are going to a party.
Lioness and Yorkie: Yay we are going to an ePlush birthday!
The Lioness, the Yorkie, and the Hammer went to the Persian cat’s house for the party.
Lioness and Yorkie: Happy Birthday, Snowflake!
Persian cat: Thank you, Roarie and Snowball.
Hammer: Knock knock
All: Who’s there
Hammer: Happy birthday to
All: Happy Birthday to who
Hammer: Happy birthday to you!
Persian cat: Oh hi hammer. Hey, we’re going to the pool.
The four best friends go to the pool.
Hammer: I bet I can nail that dive!
Persian cat: Time for pizza and cake. We have cheese, pepperoni or sausage and chocolate cake.
Hammer: Pizza is always a hit!
Persian cat: Present time. (She opens her presents.)
Persian cat: Thank you thank you thank you. Cat toys and …..nails. This was the best birthday ever.
Hammer: You don’t have to pound it in!
And what happens next? Will Hammer save the day by breaking the ePlush Piñata and releasing all the ePlush Treats? Will Hammer save the day by crushing the evil Schnickel Fritz? Will Roarie turn out to have an undiagnosed pizza allergy? To find out the thrilling answer, you have to wait until Rockstar Tailor presents the play at her school talent show.

The hammer would like to get hammered and then nailed, but that is not an appropriate ending for an elementary school show :-)
Apparently Hardingfele and Tailor are not going to thank Dr. John for the piñata idea because apparently they cannot write in full sentences in a children's play... If Hardingfele wants to explain this, she can feel free.
The pinata is a smashing idea and both Famous hat and Dr. John get credit.
There's nothing like a good joke... and that was nothing like a good joke!
