Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on June 01, 1953)

Happy Birthday, Rod Filbrandt! Another year older and still sketching your way into cartoon immortality. From the delightfully twisted humor of "The Brothers Grunt" to your witty illustrations gracing Vancouver Magazine and Entertainment Weekly, you've proven that laughter truly is timeless—just like those deadlines you always manage to beat (or at least cleverly dodge).

May this birthday bring you as much joy as you've given readers through every quirky character and hilarious panel. Keep drawing outside the lines; after all, that's where all the fun happens! Here's hoping this next chapter brings even more success—and fewer spilled ink bottles. Cheers!
