Throughout my whole life, I\u2019ve always said I want to be older. At 15, always wanted to be older. At 20, always wanted to be older, \u2019cause I knew that life was gonna get better as I got older. And I still haven\u2019t gotten to the point where I wished, &#8220;Gee, I wish I was younger.&#8221; I\u2019m still looking forward to next year, still looking forward to getting older, even at 61. And you know what?<\/line><\/p>\n<p>SNERDLEY: What?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, it has nothing to do with Social Security. Is this White Trash Cake?<\/p>\n<p>DAWN: White Trash.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And that\u2019s an affectionate term when you\u2019re talking about cake, don\u2019t misunderstand. You only put two candles on it.<\/p>\n<p>DAWN: A six and a one.<\/p>\n<p>SNERDLEY: We couldn\u2019t fit 61 candles on the cake.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, okay. Normally this kind of stuff embarrasses me and bothers me, you know, birthdays. I\u2019ve told the staff for 23 years, &#8220;Don\u2019t do it,&#8221; and every year they do it. I\u2019m not mad. I\u2019m not upset. I\u2019m not embarrassed. I guess I\u2019m getting better at receiving. So, I gotta make a wish here. Let me hold the cake up for those of you watching on the Dittocam. I better not drop this. All right, there it is. There\u2019s the cake for those of you to see and for those of you in the media watching to be misquoted later. Where you going, Brian? Is there a problem back in Broadcast Central?<\/p>\n<p>DAWN: No. (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. So I\u2019ll make a quick wish here and then I will blow out the two candles. And then Snerdley and Dawn, who are in here, can go back to the gig. Here we go. Three, two, one. (blowing)<\/p>\n<p>DAWN: Yay! (clapping)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Right on, right on, right on. Okay, take that into the kitchen and slice it up. By the way, thanks to everybody that sent me an e-mail birthday greeting today. Literally tens of thousands of them and I can\u2019t possibly respond to all of them personally, but I do appreciate it, I really do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Ah, jeez.
