That was one important vagina 40 years ago today. Who knew back then that it would poop out San Francisco's fearless leader, Gavin Newsom, who just turned a still-sexy 40? Ta-da! (The presumably wax-sealed, engraved invitation to his soirée must have gotten lost in our mailbox somewhere between the Bed, Bath & Beyond 20%-off flyers and retirement home advertisements. We're sure. Alas.)

Anyway, Beth Spotswood asked a few important, local notables (and SFist) to share their birthday wishes for le Gav.

If we may steal from Spots -- and just who wouldn't? -- what's your wish for Gavin? Go on; don't be afraid to tell him what you really want for him. Best of luck? A smooth ride on the road of sobriety? La Prairie's 's cellular line?
