They did “pin the tail on the donkey”, had a piñata and it was so much fun for the children. It took them a while to break it and I’ve never seen so much candy! They had one of those air float things that kids get in and jump on. (The other grandparents must have paid for that?) It was such fun. I didn’t get parties like that when I was little! Times, they are a’changin’~~~

Ah-HA!!!
Would a laughing Tom Cruise image work as a substitute?

A new tradition at "Amy's Place?"

I had some great birfday parties myself...ping the tail on the donkey, lol, and cupcakes for the kids, a big cake for the grown-ups. Then, when we had more room, some backyard games like 3-legged races and such. We didn’t need props to have fun, ya know?

That laughing “Tom Cruise” must have been when he was jumping on Oprah’s couch!

"That laughing Tom Cruise must have been when he was jumping on Oprahs couch!" Well, Dead Corpse posts the laughing skull because it's scary.
Now that I've seen the Tom Cruise, though, I'm going to suggest to him that he switch to it.
It's scarier.

SEX-a-genarian!
My birthdays have reached a milestone.
I like the sound of that!
A half-a-dozen decades now,
I have under my hat.
And everything's still working,
You'll have to take my word.
In fact, I still have all my parts,
Though the edges may have blurred.
My hairline seems haphazard now,
And spotty at the best.
My upper-body strength,
Has sagged with all the rest.
I still can make the effort,
And suck my gut in well,
But I can't hold that pose too long,
Because my stomach's swell.
With no digestive problems,
I eat just as I choose,
And then I wash the morsels down,
With moderate sips of booze.
For I believe in moderation,
I don't take to extremes,
I guess I'm quite exceptional,
But only in my dreams.
Let's emphasize that syllable,
The first one in this ode,
As I admit the kindness thus,
To womankind bestowed.
No supplements are needed,
Except for Vitamins,
I wouldn't want to have to buy,
Assistance for my sins.
So Mrs. Bob is happy,
Contented all the while,
The medicine cabinet is all hers,
As is her fetching smile.
I'm now a SEXagenarian,
It gives me a lofty view,
I've got ten years to live the part,
And that's just what I'm planning to do!
