Happy Birthday 5/4


Today is Baseball League Day!
There are 232 Shopping Days Left Until Xmas.
There are 47 days until summer begins.

ESPN's Erin Andrews - 33
Kimora Lee Simmons - 36
Mike Dirnt of Green Day - 39
Will Arnett - 41
Lynne Spears - 56 (The woman who spawned Britney Spears)
Audrey Hepburn - Would have been 82 - (1929 - 1993)

1626 - Peter Minuit, a Dutch colonist, landed on the island of MANHATTAN. He eventually bought the island from the Indians for beads and trinkets that were worth about $24.
(That translates to about $1,000 in modern U.S. dollars. Which is still nothing, especially considering that a studio apartment on that island rents for at least twice that per month.)

1959 - The FIRST ANNUAL GRAMMY AWARDS were held. There were two simultaneous, untelevised ceremonies in Los Angeles and New York . . . because they didn't think recording artists would want to travel just to get an award.

1968 - One small step for man, one giant, out-of-breath waddle for chubbykind: The BIG MAC debuted at McDonald's.
