Here's my birthday list





I know, you're all wondering what to get me for my birthday this year. I'm going to make it easy for you...I'm going to tell you.
You can all decide who gets what. I don't need any duplicates

Most of you know that I love art.


I've been feeling crafty lately. I think I'll put this up in my office at work after I finish it.

Some new clothes....
I've been meaning to update my wardrobe



Some video games....but make it something that will challenge me.


New athletic equipment...


Music is always a good idea... I love music
         

Maybe some new art to hang in the living room...



Just kidding, well, except for maybe the Farrah poster.

I've never been a big birthday fan. All that fuss and bother.

Someone who cares -"What do you want for your birthday?"
Birthday boy - "I don't know". ...because I don't
Someone who cares - "C'mon, I need some ideas"
Birthday Boy - "Really. I don't know".
Someone who cares - "You're not being much help"
Birthday Boy - "I know. I suck."
Someone who cares - "Well, people are asking me. What am I suppossed to tell them"
Birthday boy - "Tell them to buy me some beer".

Replay that each May over the last, oh. I don't know, 30 years...

So, truly, what I want for my birthday this year is for you to say a kind word to my Mom.
She did all the work,

...and speaking of my Mom, to her, and my lovely wife, and all the other spectacularly amazing women out there that don't get nearly the credit you should...Happy Mother's Day!

How about I buy you a beer?
