Happy 40th Birthday David X Cohen

Rather appropriate to celebrate with Futurama returning to TV with at least 13 new episodes on Comedy Central when the reruns switch networks. I also knew because it was right there on my Futurama calendar. 
 
Who is he? Well, he’s the co-creator of the show with Matt Groening and he writes all the key episodes that flesh out why Fry is in the 31st century. BeforeFuturama, he wrote other famous Simpson episodes such as “Lisa the Vegetarian,” “Bart the Mother,” and a few of the “Treehouse of Horror” anthologies. 
 
Why the X? There was already a David S Cohen in the writing union and the rules state everyone must have a unique name so he changed his middle initial to X.
