The year my husband turned 40 we lived and worked in a homeless organization. Someone had gotten him a huge sheet cake and he shared it with the other residents. He was walking with it into the dining room while everyone sang “Happy Birthday”… ♫ Happy birthday, dear…♫ AAAAHHHHHHH!!!! The cake slid off of its plastic base and tumbled to the ground…only for it to land bottom-side down on its cardboard plate! The cake was completely unharmed!!!
That would have been OK if Garfield had his mouth open just then. I hope there are another 39 years of Garfield comics and I’m here to laugh at them all.
It’s been awhile since Garfield got a Monday “splot”. He used to get them from pies in the face back in the day. So this is a nice throwback to former times when Garfield was still fresh and funny.
Happy Birthday Sweet Kitty Katt I am Sure that You Father The Great Mr.Jim Davis Is Just as Thrilled As You Are Today You Cute Furry Orange Child.May God bless both.On Such a Special Day!Please Have Fun Schnukooms!Now easy On The Cake Then again eat Hearty ^^And Remember We Love You.♥♥♥♥♥♥
G-kitty, my brutha, you and i have been buddies since i first read you in the funnies at 8 years old (when you were 2). then i started drawing pictures of you for my family and friends. the beginning of my cartooning career. happy birthday and many more.
Garfield should look on the bright side — at least only the bottom side of the cake hit him in the face instead of the upper side, with all the lit candles!
Happy Belated Birthday, buddy! I’ve been out of town, but thanks for all the laughs over these 39 (!) years. Keep up the good work. And relax some—you just had a big birthday …
