Me, with Kurt's wife Ann in background
Kurt Busiek, Jeremy Barlow, Paul, me, and David Hahn
On this date, way back in 1969, along came me. It’s been a pretty good 40 years, especially the past 16 that I’ve spent with Paul, and I’m looking forward to the next 40!
On Saturday the Periscope Gang and some of the Irregulars gathered in Karl Kesel’s back yard to BBQ and celebrate this birthday that I share with studiomate Rich Ellis (who is 27 today.) Photos by Paul Guinan.
Happy Birthday Rich Ellis!

Happy Real Birthday! You should drink a 40 at lunch today to mark the occasion.
No, you shouldn’t really. I’m glad you were born!

Happy birthday, Colleen!
And when did Paul start the sexy man-stache? Looks good!
Happy birthday to you too, Rich, even though you are a stranger to me.

Happy New Year! I celebrated my 40th on the Seventh, and I don’t feel old, just mystified… where did the time go?
I was always bummed out in school… my birthday was never recognized… but I did have some great parties! (But not as great as your BBQ!)
Have fun in SD! (and you are allowed to buy yourself a birthday present while there!)

Happy birthday! Did you punish that punk Rich Ellis kid? People under 30 should be punished for being young and full of zest for life. Stupid punk kids…
