Nice piece celebrating Ray Bradbury and his 91st birthday. May he have many more. ;)

Bradbury tells the story of how, as a boy in 1932, he went to a country fair where a carnival entertainer named Mr. Electrico touched him on the nose with an electrified sword, made his hair stand on end and shouted "Live forever!"

He has certainly achieved eternal life through his books, which are destined to live on. But it's beginning to seem as if he took the "live forever" command literally as well. On Monday Ray Bradbury turns 91, and his birthday is the perfect day to reflect on all he has given us.

And may he have as many more as he wishes running through tall summer grass in new tennis shoes.
 
Happy Birthday, Ray Bradbury! Here's yet another fiction writer you've influenced. Plus - your best friend Ray Harryhausen is keeping year-by-year pace with you.

Somewhere on the 'net (You'll have to do your on Googling. I'm old. It's past my bedtime. Give me a break!) there is a report wherein Mr B. is shown this video. He loved it. :D
