See the MySQL manual's chapter on date/time functions for many options.
Personally, I'm a big fan of date_add() and date_sub() since they allow for
using relatively "natural language" intervals like "interval 1 day" or
"interval 3 year" when doing the calcuations. Easier to read ==> easier to
debug (IMO).
