And now that I read about it, the stuffing in my great aunt's rocking chair is excelsior. From the Latin for high, elevated, and lofty, I lift this toast.

Extreme excelsior birthday
Hail, excelsior! Such an imposing name for basically wood shavings. This birthday I received several gift boxes with goodies nestled in excelsior (!) Cheeses, chocolates, licorice, caramel corn, gourmet pancake mixes, syrup and spice. Gloriana, Alleluia, and Britannia rules the waves!
One box had faux excelsior made of crinkled and crimped brown kraft paper. Faux Excelsior sounds like a cross between Pomp and Circumstance and Hail to our current, alas, Chief.
