BS: Happy Birthday Spaw

From: GUEST

I thought someopne would have started this thread already ~ did I miss something?

I mistakenly send b-day wishes a day or two early on Faceboo, and then saw this morning that today's the day.

I think...?
    We don't ordinarily allow non-music threads that were started by Guests, but I'm quite certain that the thread originator is a longtime Mudcatter who was accidentally logged out. Maybe I should claim that it was started by Spaw, jealous because I am garnering a much higher price in the Mudcat auction. But it wasn't.
    Happy birthday, Spaw.

Happy Birthday, Spawdarlin'...after all of these years I feel the need to 'fess up and admit that you are NOT the evil twin after all...'tis I, for real! Everyone knows all your gruff bluff is just that and that you are just the nicest, sweetest, most per-lite one of the bunch even if you are odoriferous now and then. BUT, that still won't getcha outta help to clean up the litter now and than!

All our love to you and Karen. Hope your day was wonderful and the year to come just keeps getting better!

From: catspaw49

Thank you all......and not a one of you is late as my birthday really isn't until tomorrow. That's okay.......you're not alone......The state of Ohio has never had it right either but that's a long story.

Didja' ever notice that the older you get, the longer the stories get? And when you tell them, somewhere in the middle you forget why you are telling them at all? And when you try to go back and tie your boring-ass story into something which you have already forgotten, it triggers another memory-fart that starts you on yet another long-winded tale which then follows the same pattern? And then repeats once again?

If a person is intelligent, that process is referred to as the "Wisdom of Age." If they are worldy, perhaps it is called the "Wisdom of Experience." In my case, I overhear people asking, "Who is that dumbass old fuck?" I now reach the point in this story that I no lomger remember why I'm telling it but let me try to wrap it up anyway............................

Geeziz......I can't think of any way to do it with the possible exception of saying how grand it is to have been here at Mudcat all these years in the company of so many dumbass old fucks...........and I love you all.

From: Bobert

Well, first of all, in the few years I've been here it seems that the Spawzer has had more birthdays than Mosses... But that's okay... I mean, heck, it's all a cycle and, yeah, there are peaks and vallies and there are these valleys known as "dumbass old fucks vallies" (DOFVs) between the "wisdom of age peaks" (WOAPs)... Well, Mosses understood this and the Spawzer, tho he might deny it, knows it as well... That comes with being a couple hunnert years old, ya see??? Now being a mere 49 years of age, me and EJ are just dumbass young fucks so we ain't been to the mountain top yet so we ain't seen all that the Spawzer has seen... But that ain't nuthin' to hold against us or hold for or against the Spawzer... Jus' an observation which, ahhhhh...

...brings me to my young dumbass fuck point and that is, ahhhhh, well, seein' as the Spawzer has taken on yet another of these things -birthdays, you know, that in itself is cause to get drunk so...

...think I'll run out to Sweet "No-peein'-in-the-parkin'-lot" Springs Store, get me a 12 pack of ice cold Iron City, take it and my fishin' pole down to the river and hopefully be passed out by noon there on the banks of the Shenandoah...

But whilst I still somewhat conscious another Happy One to the dumbass old fuck!!!

First, I'd like to apologize to Spaw for my comment on last year's Spaw's birthday thread. In that thread, I suggest that he go fuck himself. That was rude, crude, uncouth and totally uncalled for.

So, this year, DON'T go fuck yourself. You'd never be able to anyway 'cause your dick's too short!

Must we worry so about getting old? Two true stories from my recent travels:

Man of about 35 is standing on an escalator in Heathrow airport. Has his suitcase right behind him. Four-year-old son is doing his damndest to push through his legs and escape down the escalator and into the airport. Mom is shouting 'Sammy! Sammy! Samuel, stop!" Boy ignores mother completely. Father never notices or says a thing, just stares into space, completely self-absorbed.
=============
Airport in Key West has a sign above the luggage conveyor: "Moving parts. Keep children clear of conveyor."

Man of about 30 has his three-year-son sit on the rim of the conveyor to get his shoe tied. A plane has just landed, and the conveyor will start any moment. Child is sitting right under the warning sign.

Oh well, does the little guy really need all 10 fingers?

Anyway............Many thanks. Karen made me a strawberry pie that was simply beyond belief.....totally from scratch with ground pecans in the crust. The filling was heavy cream whipped with cream cheese.....fantastic.

I recall that Bill D. quit counting years when he turned 60 and he seems to be doing well now at 70 so I think I'll take that as a good sign, do the same, and look forward to 70. Many thanks to one and all.
