It's open season on Goldy on his birthday.
Per Darryl posting at Horsesass.org:

Today is Goldy's birthday!
That makes it a good day to raise a toast to Goldy for his political activism--for using his sense of humor, writing skills, and his ability to engage in thoughtful and intelligent debate, to change the world for the better. I suppose there are others who will see it differently--who see Goldy as a foul-mouthed, treasonous, political hit-man, who probably organizes and practices election fraud while being paid by the Democrats. Whatever.
You are reading this. You probably came here hoping Goldy left something to entertain, inspire, educate, or outrage you. So take a moment to leave a comment for the birthday boy.
And, while you're at it, today is an excellent day to buy Goldy a birthday beer.

So let's have an old fashioned roast to lighten the mood today! Me first ...

Collection of metaphors from Willapa Country. I received these in another context and have edited them to fit birthday boy.

Goldy's thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a dryer without Cling Free.
Goldy spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at self-help meetings and churches ls about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it.
Goldy has a high, whiny voice like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.
Goldy's thoughts drift across the on-air ocean exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.
I linked to Goldy's show and from the static came an unearthly howl. The scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30.
On Goldy's sweetheart: He fell for her like his heart was a mob informant, and she was the East River.
Even in his last years, Goldy has had a mind like a steel trap, only one that had been left out so long, it had rusted shut.
Goldy is as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real duck that is actually lame, maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.

Happy B-day Goldy...

Trying to think of something pithy to say on this auspicious occasion, but at least you didn't have the bad luck of being born on the 14th. But then, I could have raked you over the coals with Karl Rove's bitch jokes...

Is he...

...sitting on the toilet? No wait: he's sitting in his living room in front of a Mac portable.

It's that look on his face, I think. I'll shut the door now, tell me when you're done.
