That's about ten thousand birthdays per day. The 50 Year Dash is the perfect book for every single one of them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819484545312,"sku":"NEW0385493010","price":21.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61VCzDl-YkL.jpg?v=1781133245","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/50-year-dash-the-feelings-foibles-and-fears-of-being-half-a-century-old-0385493010","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
