Benjamin has sworn off blogging, but he did choose to participate in Brico’s Birthday Ten List project. Happy birthday to Brico from Ben!Top 10 Ways Brico’s Getting Better With Age:
10: His “When I was a kid” lectures to his daughter are getting that much more potent.
9: Thanks to the subtle effects of low-level light, fluctuations of temperature and humidity, and the degrading/fermentation of fruits and yeasts, Brico’s flavors and finish are maturing and developing. Seriously, he’s up to like $75/bottle.
8: He no longer wets the bed.
7: Involuntarily.
6: If he were 20 years younger Tish wouldn’t be allowed to date him by law.
5: Thanks to wisdom coming with age, Brico’s almost bright enough to avoid crowds of the ilk that subject you to gross ‘net harassment.
4: If he were 10 years younger Tish wouldn’t want to date him.
3: His continued steady progression through increasing years supports the generally-accepted model of space/time, keeping Einsteinian rules constant. And, seriously — who the fuck’d want to mess with that shit?
2: He’s that much easier to hunt.
1: At 11, bald was just fucking weird.

thanks very much! im loving all of these. but you are wrong on 2 points…
1- if i were 20 years younger i would now be legal for tish to… date
2- if i were 10 years younger it make tish all that much more happy and satisfied. cause let me tell you, in my youth i could almost match her… gusto.
but i treasure this list all the same.

Brico ~ You’re forgetting one very important fact. Since discovering older guys (namely you!), I don’t want to *date* younger guys! Of course, thinking about you with an equal level of “gusto” turns me on. How about buying me a time machine for Christmas? I want to see just what this younger Brico was like!
I could visit him when you’re not in the mood! *LOL* Seriously, love, you’re everything I could ever want! Love you!
