Happy Birthday, Lulu!

Thirty years ago today, I got the most generous gift anyone has ever given me: A sister! 

Now, I could make your head spin talking about the things to love about my sister -- and, now that she is a woman, she is RADIANT in every way. I am so proud and so grateful she is mine and I will feel I have done my job thus far if she knows that (I will guess she does!)

A true tribute to my sister might skip the Hallmark moments of it all and link to a couple of the things we have laughed hardest about in the last few years... because the most generous gift anyone ever gave her --- was a brilliant sense of humor and comic timing!! 

  • I could care less if this has or has not proven to be a fake, it's funny when the anchorman says "country-ass town."
  • Chuck Norris basically offered us an entire afternoon of comedy.
  • It's not recent comedy, but it's still comedy... this was our first concert. That video is really a treat -- about 45 seconds in he starts singing -- yes!
  • This letter still makes us laugh until we cry. Poor Lulu, she always has to sit next to the weirdos and the bathrooms.
  • I don't know why, but Rob Thomas made us laugh pretty hard once. He really isn't funny, it was more a timing thing.
  • What can be funnier than The Office?
  • My sister could hardly get the words out when she called to ask me if I had seen this commercial.
So, happy birthday sissy. I love you and I thank you for the laughs!
