Have The Rolling Bones Killed



By Arielle

Greetings, blog reader,

Notice anything about today?

Yes, October 10 happens to be the birthday of Thelonious Monk, Peter Coyote, Bradley Whitford, David Lee Roth, Tanya Tucker, Brett Favre, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., Chris Penn, Svetlana Bakhridinova, and the nation of Fiji.

It's also the anniversary of the Hurricanes' defeat of the Devils for their first-ever post-Hartford regular season win, Liz Taylor and Richard Burton's second marriage, the deaths of Orson Welles and Christopher Reeve, and Rush Limbaugh's announcement that he was addicted to painkillers and hitting the rehab.

It is also World Mental Health Day.

Yep, today is full of great things!

Oh right. It is also the birthday of one D. Bones. That's right: 32 years of OJ-hating, goatee-wearing, Paris Hilton-slandering, morbidly bad football-watching, apocalypse-forecasting, Billy Joel-mocking, God-denying, right-wing talk radio-listening, Flanders-quoting, Bruce-loving, occasionally complaining, neurotically cleaning, pineapple juice-guzzling, soy milk-sipping, vocabulary-flexing...well, you get the point.

Happy birthday, Bones!

Now you can get back to "Nanny 911" and celebrating your youth.

A new winner for best ever blog in the history of blogs and blog-like activities.

Today also happens to be the anniversary of the Battle of Karbala in 680 during which Shia Imam Husayn bin Ali, the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad, was decapitated by forces under Caliph Yazid I.

Not to mention the birth of Brett Fahaaahvvreh and my distant cousin (not really) singer Mya Harrison and, of course, World Mental Health Day.

"OCCASIONALLY complaining"???

Just occasionally, huh?

Wow, he must really like you or something.

I was trying to be diplomatic. It is his birthday, and all.

Today is also the birthday of the tuxedo jacket, which made its debut in Tuxedo Park, NY, on Oct. 10, 1886.

And thank you for the honor, Bones, because I'm pretty sure I can't think of any adjectives to go with the word boobies.
