Origin. My son was knocked down in a collision between his bicycle and a motorcar. He is not badly injured and we are unsure as to who was at fault, but as his father I have decided that the car driver was ;-)

O FOR THE JOYS OF PARENTHOOD
Oh Fiddlesticks.  Over Run Tot...Hit European Jalopey.  Overall, Youth Survivied, 'Owever, Flattened.  Perhaps Another Reason Exclaiming "Need The Helmet"?  Optional?  Oah Dunthinkso.

Since Tony's son is older than anyone I'd consider a 'tot' perhaps that could change to 'Over Run Tonylet'

Young Mr McCoy O'Grady is about to become a mirror of his father - he is

FIFTEEN
Fifteen Is Five Threes - Especially Endearing Number

I could just have said that he is 15 but that would have been boring and off-topic for the site we're on ;-)

15 eh?  Me wonders why he has yet to submit an acronym...guess he didn't take after his father that much.

[Angela]

Well, if I'm not mistaken, Tony's words have come true today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TONY!

Hardly A Party Pooper, You'll Be Incrementing 'Round The Helios' Digits, Announcing 'Yippee! Tony O'Grady's New Year!'

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANTHONY!

Here's A Properly Phony Year... Because In Roman, The (Heard) Digits Announce You're Allowed Non-Truths. Twenty-One Now, Yeah?

(Tony is now officially allowed to li about his age)

Play the Birthday Game, Tony... sorry I didn't make you anything new this year. I hope you have a great day, and indeed, a GREAT YEAR.

Get Ready, Everyone, As Tony's Year Exceeds All Records!

Never knew it was MARC ANTONY'S BIRTHDAY

The 'H' in Anthony is silent, so maybe it doesn't matter if it is omitted. Mind you, my sister pronounces Anthony in such a way as to let the hearer know that there is an 'h' in it.

[Angela]

Doh! And I replaced it with a T word. Okay:

Here's A Properly Phony Year... Because In Roman, The (Heard) Digits Announce You're Allowed Non-Truths. Have One Neat Year!

(Not meaning to imply that subsequent years shouldn't be neat)

You used an extra capitalised S word, which makes me think of decapitating with a sword for some reason.

Wow, I think you posted while I was composing my message, Tony! People here pronounce the H in Anthony... going by what I've heard, I tink Irish people tend to pronounce 'th' as 't' in general. I'm sure Tony is more of an autority on that though.
