I think you’ll agree that the world is a better place with me in it. Right?
Agree with me!

I want to thank those those who visited the RWD site and contributed to my B-Day fund. Specifically, I want to thank BOTH of them. Sheesh, you’d think I’d be more popular…
Last night I had a wonderful revelation. My daughter and I spend a lazy Sunday afternoon at Borders bookstore, sitting on the floor of the kids book section, reading away. I was reading Dave Barry (my writing idol) and she was reading her Magic Treehouse series. After about 20 minutes, my whole body was numb from sitting on the floor. She suggested we find a couch. Smart girl. Anyway, she bounced up and skipped to a couch nearby. I took about five minutes of trying to loosen my joints. Unable to shake it all out, I ended up crawling to that couch on all fours. Really, it couldn’t have been more humliating if a nearby toddler had tried to crawl up on my back to play horsey.
So I realized that getting older means getting older. I’m not happy about that. But rather than focus on the bad, I’m grateful for the blessings that I do have:
RWD’s Blessings..
I have most of my hair. Sure, it’s on the outer edges of my head, but I have most of it. And the ear supply seems to be increasing!
I have two wonderful kids. Last night, baby boy was crying and I went to check on him. Turns out that one of the diaper tabs had broken. Had I not caught this, this morning would not have been so happy. Or so clean.
I get to write at one of the craziest, whackiest websites in the world. . And at IMAO, too!
I’ve never tracked it, but I’m sure I have at least 10 IMAO readers who read my stuff faithfully.
My wife still loves me. I don’t know what I do, but she does. That is soooo coool.
It’s been ages since the dog had an accident in the house. Excellent.
Sure, the family is flat broke, but everyone is healthy. Still, we wish we had money.
I think I’d give up a limb for $10,000.
I think, I’m not sure. Depends on the limb.
If it weren’t for politics, I’d have nothing to laugh at. Embarassingly enough, real life is starting to eclipse anything I could make up!
Think about this: The French youth are rioting because nobodty will give them job security!
It used to be a good thing when a young man would say, “I’m here to set your business on fire!”
Now, it’s a standard part of the riot process.
Coffee! Coffee has to be counted as a blessing in my life. What would I do without it?
I’m sure I’m missing something.
Oh yeah. I have to take this day and thank God for the gift of life. Today is the only day I have, I might not get another one. But I’m glad I keep getting them and getting them.

Happy Birthday to Me!
Happy happy birthday!
Happy Birthday RWD! Thanks for the laughs. May you have many more.
nervously looks at shaking fists Uh…yes, Happy Birthday, and yes, you are correct.
well happy birthday, mr.RWD! I have noticed the advancing ear hair supply and making old man groans after extended floor sitting in my own experience. at least you’re on the right side of the turf!
and dang funny, too. i send your editorials to my sister and she loves them.
congrats on staying alive. limbs intact. (till the right deal comes along).
RightWingDuck, I am now inspired and will attempt to visit your site whenever there is nothing new on IMAO. That makes it 11.
Happy Birthday!!!
Happiest of Birthdays to you, RWD. May the blessings continue and the sun keep shining and whatnot.
(Oh, and you should hold out for AT LEAST $20,000 for a limb; way more if it’s a leg.)
Happy B-day RWD! Thanks for the chuckles 🙂
I’m still mad at you for missing my birthday.
Happy Birthday!
OK, OK, Happy Birthday! Don’t beat us!
Merry Birthday, thanking you for another year long ride on M-Class planet “Earth”. We here at Shimauma Spacetravel hope you enjoyed your trip enough that you’ll go for another round, and while you’re trying to decide…SALTED NUTS FOR EVERYONE!!!
Happy Birthday, RWD!
Mine is this coming Sunday, the 16th. So many people will be eating hard-boiled eggs and candy in honor of it.
Feliz Cumpleanos Ducky! And you’re right…coffee is a big blessing!! Keep your limbs because if I’ve learned anything in my 40 years so far, it’s that money problems are temporary. I hope you have a great day!!
Happy Birthday! Keep the funny coming. It’ll help keep you from getting old. It’s been doing that for me since the Truman administration.
Happy Bday!
I hope you don’t have to sell a limb!
But if you do, I’d steal one off of a hippy and sell that instead.
Have a Happy Birthday Ducky! HAVE ONE!!!! Shakes Fist
Happy Birthday Your Royal Downeyness,
May your day be filled with sunshine, your evening filled with romance and your night filled with …..( use your imagination).
Today is a special day in our home as well. My sweet spouse and I have been married for 29 years today. After living in 5 different states and one foreign country, 6 beautiful children, two wonderful children in law, two grandchildren on the way (April and October) as well as a child in law on the way (June wedding), I can’t help but think; “What a long, strange trip it’s been.”
Many happy returns of the day and keep your feathers dry. (Chaste kiss on the forehead, Mawaa-sound of kiss)
heyyy, my birthday too.
Happy Birthday, us.
“Wish me happy brithday”
Okay. Happy brithday. 😎
Feliz cumpleanos recto pie pato!
Happy birthday, and many happy returns!
