Today is my birthday. Although turning 39 is not as exciting as turning 6 or 16 was I discovered something today that got me pumped up. Today is also the birthday of the Tazmanian Devil! I also discovered that I share a birthday with Paula Abdul, Salman Rushdie, and Garfield, but none of them are as cool as Taz.
Taz and I have something else in common as well. The story goes that after the first cartoon featuring Taz entered theaters, the head of Warner Bros animation ordered that Taz not be used again because the character was "too obnoxious". I have been accused of the same thing.
Taz made a comeback and is responsible for what I think is the funniest line spoken in a Looney Tunes cartoon. If you know what it is leave a comment. The prize for a correct answer will be the satisfaction of knowing that you watched too much TV as a child!
Have a happy Tazmanian Devil day!

i believe it was - "straight up now tell me do you really wanna love me forever?"
Why for you bury me in the cold, cold ground?
By the way, Happy B-day Cliff. Hope you have a great one. You can also add Lou Gehrig, Wahoo McDaniel and Dirk Nowitzki to your B-day list for today.
Happy Happy Birthday, Cliff!! I hope that you have fun with all of your girls! You don't look a day over 25!
Happy Birthday Cliff. I hope you had a great day. You share a birthday with alot of important people.LOL. I just found out Connor is gonna have surgery to put in a G-tube (feeding tube) on July 3rd. Please keep my family in your prayers. Thank You..
Trey - You nailed the Taz line, and I didn't know about Wahoo McDaniel's birthday. He's almost as cool as Taz.
Jimmy - I will be praying for Connor.
Jeanne - Thanks for the compliment, although the ever expanding pathces of grey in my hair give away my true age!
I don't think of the grey as grey...I think of it as experience just oozing out of me!
