Happy 40th Birthday Patton Oswalt

Most of the world knows him as Remy from Ratatouille or the character he played on the sitcom The King of Queens (I never watched it) but he’s made numerous cameos/appearances in cartoons, movies and other comedy specials. My favorite is the nerdy, lives-with-his-mother, writer/creator of the Crimson Chin comic book from The Fairly Odd Parents. Some friends love Patton’s recurring supergeek on Reno 911.

His stand-up routine is even better and I regret not getting to catch him back around 2006 when Patton came to Austin. The two dates at the Cap City Comedy Club was used as the foundation of Werewolves and Lollipops which contains the best dig at George Lucas since Brian Posehn’s warning.
