59 or 64


*whispers*

Shhh!

Come closer.

I don't want to say this too loudly.

Don't tell anyone.

It's my birthday.

Yep, I'm another year older.

And so are my kidneys and bladder.

So here's a little tune to observe my internal organs' birthday.

It's based on Chicago's 25 or 6 to 4....

Ready?

Hit it!

Dunh, dunh, dunh, dunh, dunh... dunh, dunh, dunh, dunh, dunh...

(Okay so you try interpreting the opening of that song!)

Can't wait for the break of day
I've gotta go now, right away
Bang against the bed my thigh
Tears swell up I start to cry
Running cross-legged across the floor
Am I 59 or 64?

Staring blindly at my knee
It's dark and I squat to pee
Wanting just to go to sleep
My pj's down in a heap
Should I try to pee some more
Am I 59 or 64?

Feeling like I ought to wake
Today's the day I'll have cake
And maybe some beers, we will see
I'll prolly just have to pee
Sit me near the bathroom door
Am I 59 or 64?

So if you haven't guessed yet I'm 59. It's my kidneys and bladder that feel like they're 64!

If you can't put my words with the tune, here's the original:



If you're wondering what the heck the original song is about here's an explanation of what the lyrics mean.

Geez, their words make less sense than mine.

I'm thinkin that 59 is the new 45. I am telling myself that as I will be there on my next B'day. As far as your bladder and such, they don't have to rationalize their age as no one could probably discern by looking at them what their actual age is. (perhaps you have a very young looking bladder) So have a happy birthday. 59 or 45 or whatever

What? I thought you were 25! Honest.

The best punster are you!
You're a great funny Nomie!

Happy Birthday Mr. Noname!

Cheryl: I like the 45 part...and the younger bladder. That would be cool.

Quirks: As I like to say: I may have to get older but that doesn't mean I have to grow up. Thanks, Quirks.

Well there's an oldie. Nice job with the lyrics!

So when is your birthday? Is it today or was it yesterday? Or is it just your organs' birthday? I'm so confused, but then I am easily confused.

At the risk of repeating myself, Happy Birthday to you (or should it be to your innards?).

00dozo: Blogaversary was Monday. Birthday is today. In dog years I'd be...dead.

Happy Birthday Doof!
Your only as old as the girls you feel!

Happy Birthday Sir! All of my parts are older than yours, and I don't let it get me down. You still rock at 59. xoxoxo

Happy, happy birthday! Hope you are having a great day!

Happy Birthday! Oh, honey -- if I had back all the time I spend peeing, I'd still be in the womb (and that's just in the last couple of years). Hate to break it to you, but it doesn't get any better. Before you know it you're one of those people hauling an outhouse behind your car.

I like your lyrics. I think they should rerecord the song using them and call it the geriatric version.

May all your birthday wishes come true, my fine funny friend.
Happy Birthday NoName! Enjoy your cake and beer (although not at the same time, I hope!). Many happy returns!

laughingmom: Oh really? Don't tell my wife.
nonamedufus said…
Linda: Well, thank you ma'am. You rock too!

Brooke Amanda: The power went out at our place and we spent the night in a nearby hotel. Worked for me!
nonamedufus said…
Jayne: Thanks, Jayne. I had a great day. In part due to comments like yours.
nonamedufus said…
We work: I may have had more beer than cake. In fact I didn't have any cake at all. What's up with that?
Madge said…
Happy Birthday Dufus!!! Glad I found you.
DameMeow said…
Happy Birthday! Well since you can't change your kidneys and bladder...why not redecorate the bathroom?
Ziva said…
Happy belated birthday, dufus!!
nonamedufus said…
Madge: I'm glad you found me too. And thanks for the birthday wishes.
nonamedufus said…
DameMeow: That's a damn fine idea!
nonamedufus said…
Ziva: And a belated thanks right back at ya!
Happy Belated Birthday, Dufus! Have you cleaned up that water on the knee yet? Many happy returns of the day!

Boom Boom: Hey, another one of my long-time followers! You know I don't feel old. You might say I feel like a real whiz kid. (hahaha)

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy!  You know what happens on Imagination D

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav
