I think of it in the way Winnie The Pooh said it to Eeyore. He simply said "Many happy returns of the day, Eeyore!"
Does this mean Eeyore is going to come back in another life as a happy donkey? Not necessarily. What is does mean is that Pooh is hoping that Eeyore will reap all the good things today has to offer, and that in so doing, he might return those good thing to others!

Ha! Tax preparer. gotta love that one.
The term dates back many centuries, as a well-wishing on someone, that whatever bread you cast on the water will come back to you (ecclesiastes 11:1-6 "Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again...")

No. I think it's just a way of wishing the recipient a long and happy life.

No, I think it more is implying getting something good back in return for being a good person or something to that effect.

I think they are talking about Christmas time when you go to the stores to return all your "crappy" gifts....Because you have many of them and returns usually arent happy....Its like saying good luck..................or not.
