Birthday Grateful Mind

More From Alexander Pope

We americans commercialize everything. look at what we did to christmas. christmas is jesus' birthday. now, i don't know jesus, but from what i read he was the least materialistic person who ever walked the earth. no bling on jesus. he kept a low profile and we turned his birthday into the most commercial day of the year. in fact we have a whole jesus birthday season. and then at the end of it, we have the nerve to have an economist come on tv and say what a horrible jesus birthday season we had.

The first thing i did when i was forty years old, i put handcuffs on and i jumped off alcatraz prison and swam to san francisco handcuffed. that made national publicity. then, there were three or four years where i would do more difficult feats. another birthday i towed a thousand pound boat across the golden gate. on my 65th birthday i towed 65 boats a mile and a half in tokyo. on my 70th birthday i towed 70 boats with 70 people in it with my feet and hands tied a mile and a half in long beach.... my next birthday i will be 93. i'm gonna tow my wife across the bathtub.

I'm feeling really grateful. i'm feeling grateful that i've been able to participate in this game for as long as i have. i'm feeling grateful that i've been able to tell my stories. i don't know that my mom and dad are that grateful, or carey [hart, pink's husband], but it's been good for me. i'm grateful if i've kept one girl from feeling different or ugly or unempowered.

At 50, if you are on a diet on your birthday, you can't eat a piece of your birthday cake. so grab two, a piece in each hand and, lo and behold, you will be on a balanced diet! happy birthday, old chum!

I've never looked forward to a birthday like i'm looking forward to my new daughter's birthday, because two days after that is when i can apply for reinstatement.

"right!" "right!" "you can get there!" "i can get there!" "you're a natural at counting to two!" "i'm a nat'ral at counting to two!" "if you can count to two, you can count to anything!" "if i can count to two, i can count to anything!" "and then the world is your mollusc!" "my mollusc! what's a mollusc?
