Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for February 25, 2023

A highly-motivated pissed-off angel who can only fly in little circles.

Here’s a thought; ask the angel what RJ’s birthday is. Otherwise, how would he know that someone missed his birthday.

It would be better to miss the birthday, and celebrate every other day of the year as an un-birthday. You get a lot more presents that way.

Easy to fix. Just ring a bell. “Every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings.”

Maybe if RJ knew his birthday, we could fix this whole mess.

Personally I don’t see the big deal about birthdays. I’m not one to want a big celebration. I do know others want a huge fuss made over them. It is a curiosity.

Since you’ve annoyed the angel to the point of distraction, try asking the Tree That Knows Stuff if it knows when RJ’s birthday is.

Sometimes, when you can’t figure out how to end the story arc, you just gotta wing it.

Quick, Verne, now’s your chance to take back what you said.

My birthday is January 1st and my parents seldom celebrated it. I’d get the same number of Christmas presents as my brothers but mine were all marked “Christmas/Birthday”. Luckily I married a great woman who never forgets.

I thought that angel was still dancing to “Start Me Up” on the pin head…

My grandfather didn’t know his birthday, so he celebrated on New Year’s.
