 Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. President, if you are truly surprised after 77 of these happy occasions, your acting skills have lost none of their luster. But surprise or not, on behalf of everyone here, your administration, your staff, your political party, and your friends from all over the country, we wish you happy birthday, Mr. President. And Mr. President and Mrs. Reagan, as you know, there are two people who have worked especially hard to recognize your birthday in this unique way. One of them, the first lady is on my left, and the other is Marvin Hamlisch. Marvin? And Marvin, Mr. President, has composed a march in honor of your birthday, and it's entitled the Ronald Reagan March, and the United States Marine Corps Band is ready to let us all hear how it sounds now. Mr. President, I thought you'd like to know that now that you've got a march of your very own, we've taken steps to have a circuit installed at Capitol Hill, and any time you think you need to expand your presence in that place, all you have to do is touch a switch, and the Oval Office and the Capitol Building will be regaled with the Ronald Reagan March. Now, Mr. President, to go along with the march, we have here something else for you. We have a gift certificate, which has been prepared by your staff in which I'd like to read. The gift certificate presented to President Ronald Reagan, redeemable for 1988, the best of eight, from every member of your administration, and expires on January 20, 1989. Happy birthday. Well, believe it or not, I am speechless. For the last few hours, I have been surprised, as I've never been surprised before. I came over here to have a hasty lunch and get into McCamp David clothes with Nancy, and found myself at a luncheon party inside the state dining room with a great many friends there. And I think you ought to know, when I think of how long it took the whole government here to come up with a budget this year, Marvin Hamlisch wrote that march in a week. To all of you, I can't tell you how, yes, I am surprised at anyone as a cynic who doesn't think that I am, because I just thought that, well, yes, everybody was being very nice, and Howard helped me over here with a few presents that had been delivered in the office, and I thought he was going out of his way to be nice. Didn't know he'd been invited to lunch, because I didn't know there was a lunch. But to all of you also, can you imagine what this means? There are more of you here than there lived in the town where I was born. And it's, I just, there isn't any way to express it, and you know something? It ain't bad having another birthday even at this stage. Here I am, 39 years old. I've been that old 39 times now. And I wouldn't mind going another 39. But to all of you, all I can say is just thank you all, God bless you all. She did the surprising!
