Soupy Sales all a'Twitter

Who knew January 8th was such a momentous day in cultural history?  Not only is today the anniversary of my first column, but it's also a special day for one of my heroes: Soupy Sales, born January 8, 1926.

Check him out on YouTube

Beloved host of the children's show Lunch with Soupy Sales, comedian, pie-throwing artisan and friend to puppets everywhere, Milton Supman turns 83 today.

Happy birthday to this comic genius!

WARNING: Soupy Sales is now a dirty old man on Twitter.  These truly are the End Times. http://twitter.com/soupysales
