I heard we are all 2018 today

Add your age plus your year of birth and it’s 2018. Only happens once every 1,000 years. Wow, today must be a special day - for another 90 minutes anyway.

    What, pugs?
    Our farmer neighbors had one when we moved up here... but it, umm, bought the farm a year or so ago. :(

    umm... and I actually had to think kind of hard about this... but... yeah. Age works like that. That's why you're as old as you are every year, right?

    When asked to put on a name tag, I have been known to quip:
    I was born without a name. It was a congenital defect.

    I freaking hate name tags.
    You wanna know my name? Ask me.
    Alternatively, I respond to "Hey!" (which, in fact, I am pretty sure is what my father thought my name was).

    My distant uncle passed away
    And left me quite a batch
    And I was livin' high until the fatal day
    A lawyer proved I wasn't born, I was only hatched
