Today marks **Weirddave** ’s 35th birthday. I love him very much, and you all must as well. If just for today, and if only in the most detached, platonic way.

Everyone wish him well! Send him beer! Compliment him on his choice of women!

Happy birthday, honey. I love you.

Happy birthday Dave!!! You’re a helluva guy - always there when a fellow Doper needs a hand, or an ear, or whatever. And despite your sig, you’re every bit as Dave as you look!

So here, have a Moosehead. And share a sip or two with your lovely bride-to-be. 🙂

You better tell me if you are so I can cancel the delivery on mine.

Congratulations, **Dave**. Now you’re closer to fifty than you are to twenty.

'Tink’s the glasses together.

She’d _better_ be buying him that shredder! **Dave** ’s new digs back up to what used to be a junk yard. The junk yard is gone, but not all the debris left with it, and there’s no one left to complain to. He’ll need the shredder to make the yard safe for his son. We’re always lookin’ out fer ya, bud!

Happy gittin’ wiser day!

Many happy returns, Dave!

My present? It’s in the yard. It was a little too big to get in the door. Yeah, that’s it. . .the lump of wrapping paper that’s the approximate size and shape of a Newell Shredder. Uh huh.  
Zap!
