Let's make this birthday one to remember.

64 years old (Born on October 31, 1960)

Happy Birthday, Jim Benton! May your day be filled with more laughs than an "It's Happy Bunny" insult and fewer awkward moments than Jamie Kelly's diary entries. Your hilarious wit has brightened countless childhoods (and secretly amused adults too), proving that humor truly is timeless.

Congratulations on all you've achieved—from the mischievous charm of Dear Dumb Diary to earning two National Cartoonists Society Reuben Award nominations. Clearly, you're doing something right—or delightfully wrong—in the best possible way. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater success—and plenty of material for future cartoons!

Keep making us laugh—you're aging better than a sarcastic bunny!
