Yes folks, today is our sage pundit’s celebration of birth.
No longer can he claim, by any acceptable definition, to be a young man. No, from now on, there is no denying that our kool-aid denying double-domed brain truster is anything but an OLD fart!
In any case, y’all join me in wishing the ol’ coot a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
This phrase comes from the 1978 "Jonestown massacre" in which most members of the Peoples Temple cult, blindly following their leader Jim Jones, committed suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid.
Radically Tolerant - of all people, irrespective of race, faith, circumstance. As a person, you will be treated with the respect and dignity you deserve as an individual created in the image of God.
Radically Intolerant - of slipshod reasoning, emotion without intellectual substance, bad ideas, lazy thinking, cowardly ad hominem attacks, the preposterous notion that 9/11 is some government conspiracy (proceed directly to the Loony Bin; do not pass "Go"; do not collect $200), the designated hitter, and the Dallas Cowboys.

Happy Birthday Byron! Youth is simply a state of mind (esp. if you’re over 40!)
