Today’s my 30th birthday, which is nice because I’ve been feeling 40 lately, so turning another year older actually helped me feel younger. While fabulous babysitting grandparents cared for the girls, my wife and I commiserated with ghosts at The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colo., hiked for miles and miles in Rocky Mountain National Park, swam without a toddler in our arms, and generally behaved the way we once did before having children.
In honor of myself, here’s a list of 30 monikers (I call them Ronikers) that I use in emails to friends.
- Ronzilla
- Rontastic
- Ronasaurus Rex
- Ronarino
- Ronzoni
- Ron Solo
- Obi Ron Kenobi
- Electric Ron Mower
- Ron with the Wind
- Ronfucius
- Ronstipation
- Dazed and Ronfused
- Rontinental Airlines
- Ronumental
- Rondolph the Ron-Nosed Rondeer
- Ronstitutional
- Ron Jovi
- …
ACK! In my old age, I can’t remember any more and desperately want at least 30 different Ronikers before the end of the day!
Please, if you’ll oblige me on my birthday, share your punniest suggestions of ways to use my name in the comment area below… help me, Obi Ron Kenobi, you’re my only hope…
