RUH-ROH. Imagine our surprise, chagrin, and/or utter embarrassment when — thanks to a less than subtle “nudge-nudge” from our very dear friend, TAN LUCY PEZ — we were reminded that today, of ALL the days in all the months of each and every stinking year is our pal DOUG‘S 40TH BIRTHDAY!!! (that’s, like, 280 in dog years… you know, old)
WEA (in our heads, that’s plural for “mea”) culpa, you CRUSTY CURMUDGEON, you. That said, surely you can recall the fact that some of us DID see fit to wish you a Happy Happy Joy Joy this time LAST YEAR, Shirley — and in a rather grand fasion, at that. Or is it difficult to remember stuff like that at your age? (careful boy, say word one about our own “advanced” years, and we will hurt you… we may be older, but we also carry bigger sticks)

A gooey multi-layered cake sporting trick candles awaits ALL Friends of Bierce over at Humor-blogs.com. Everyone else can eat bread.
PS: a more resourceful blog would hang on to the post we did earlier in order to use it later this week. We, however, are too lazy to do that. (our way of saying please read it, because our son took all of 3 minutes out of his not-so-busy day to find/send us that video, and we think it’s really cute) 😉

Comment by tlp Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 2:30pmHappy Birthday Doug…you’ve almost achieved adulthood – not quite, but you’re getting close.
Comment by BoBo Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 2:59pmBobo, I can feel adulthood’s scythe against my neck. Thank you, Neva. Hopefully this post entails less work for me than last year’s did. That’s a great gift.

Comment by snuppy Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 3:27pmhalf-asseddinky post, to save YOU the trouble of having to read something lengthy, complicated, and/or drawn out. i mean, those long-winded posts can be murder on one’s tired old eyes, eh?? 😉Happy B-Day Doug. From my perspective, you’re still a baby.
Comment by Nessa Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 6:00pmYou didn’t? Forgot Doug’s birthday. I thought soem note-worthy news-sattion would have a special segment about it every year??? Ironically, I am pretty sure he would have loved that in his odd way. You forgetting. and who could blame you, that’s why teh world invented blog mamas…they don’t mind making you look foolish! 🙂
Happy Birthday Doug, for the 7th time today…you sure have a hall-of-fame status in the blogger world.
Comment by Penguin Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 7:15pmHappy birthday, Doug!
The dog’s scarf is RED, and that’s a cute-cute picture! I am off to read the cat post…
And wow, you really did give Doug a 40-happy salute!
Comment by actonbell Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 7:35pmNessa: as from mine, girlfriend… as from mine. heh heh 😉
Penguin: yeppity-yep. i forgot, BIG time. woe is me. or was me before TLP came along to set me straight. you’ve wished that curmudgeon Happy Birthday 7 times on SEVEN different blogs? wowie, i’m impressed. (apparently i’ve missed a few blogs on my “rounds” today, not much of a surprise, considering all the other things i had to do.) 😉
Actonbell: oh, i know it’s red, but i figure by saying it’s maroon, no one will tell me I am. guess that didn’t work out quite the way i’d planned it. d’oh! 🙄
Comment by snuppy Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 7:49pmand I meant to say, I hope your son heals quickly! Best wishes:)
Comment by actonbell Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 7:49pmActonbell: awwww…. thank you so much! Andy’s doing better every day. the fact that i just fixed him 3 pb&j sandwiches to “tide” him over until dinner time says it all. (just call me Seymor, because that’s the way i feel these days, what with my boy’s alien/monster appetite, and all.) 🙄
Comment by snuppy Monday, 12 November 2007 @ 7:58pmThanks again, Snuppy and to all here, even if it was the 7th time.
