Happy 9th birthday, Mia! Thank you so much for your charming performances as the title role of Good Luck Charlie. I've always found you amusing, especially on the episode Amy Needs A Shower, where Charlie tells her Mom's baby shower guests what her Mom really thinks of them. Your performances are as beautiful as you are. Whatever you decide to do next, I wish you the best of luck with it. Here's something I'd like to share with you: if you're interested in measuring animal speeds in the wild, observe them on YouTube, and pause the viewing after a second. Using this method, I calculated a raven's horizontal flight to be about 29 mph; a peregrine falcon's dive flight, 56 mph. I calculated 4.5 mph for the running speed of a short-tailed sengi (elephant shrew), which is actually very fast for an animal with a body length (excluding the tail) of only about 5 inches. Thanks for everything, Mia. You're a very talented and lovely person.
