+1 really like the comparison to wine! – Terry Li Nov 2 '11 at 16:37
I would have upvoted twice if I could! Today's my best friend's birthday, I prepared a fine wine for him and congratulated him like this: "hope you get better as the years go by, just like the wine; and our friendship gets better and better, just like the wine." He was not prepared for that and really impressed by my wishes. Thanks again! – Terry Li Nov 27 '11 at 5:25
