46 years ago I married a girl who made me laugh a lot. And today, three children and five grandchildren later, she is still the funniest person I know. I love you, Ribs. We did good.

I co-wrote a Beach Boys special that Lorne Michaels produced for NBC in 1976. I got to know Brian Wilson but found myself mostly studying him. A tortured genius whose songs are a cornerstone in American pop culture. Hopefully he’s finally at peace.

My Bar Mitzvah. Exactly 62 years ago. I am now older than both of my grandparents were that day. Amen!

Happy Pub Day to my friend and sometimes co-author Dave Barry whose newest book, "Class Clown,” is a hilarious memoir that he only charged me half price for. I'm telling you all, that you'll love this book so much that you, too, will want to staple it to your forehead.
