Happy Birthday to the unforgettable Earl Hindman! Your portrayal of Wilson, the wise and mysterious neighbor on "Home Improvement," remains timelessly hilarious. Who else could deliver profound wisdom while cleverly hiding half their face behind a fence? You turned everyday backyard chats into comedic gold.

Your ability to make audiences laugh without ever fully revealing your face is legendary—proving that sometimes less really is more. Even today, fans fondly recall your witty advice and quirky charm as highlights of television comedy history. Here's hoping you're celebrating somewhere with plenty of fences around—you know, just for old times' sake!
