    Marion Ross turns 92 today. Most famous as the mom in Happy Days, she had quite a few character roles in her younger days. Here's a picture of her in a 1962 episode of Route 66, with another co-star who would be most famous for his appearance in the legendary NIght of the Lepus if not for an appearance in a short-lived series with a long afterlife...

    You gotta get one of those over-the-air antennas to realize just how many Westerns DeForest Kelley played in before he hit it big. I should not have been surprised, but I was.

    No birthday, but Woody Allen did not die. He's trending on Twitter, though!

    Out of town and missed this one:

    Gordon Lightfoot - turned 82 on Nov 17th.



    "I'll Tag Along" and "If You Could Read My Mind" - performed this past July 1st, on Canada Day.

    EDIT: Bob Dylan once said: "Whenever I hear a Gordon Lightfoot song, it's like I wish it would last forever".

    No idea these guys were still around (for some reason I thought they were older), and apparently still touring:

    Richard "Dick" Smothers - 81 (November 20, 1939) was one-half of the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour .

    His brother, Tommy Smothers - the half w/o the mustache, will turn 84 on Feb, 2 (I'm posting that now because I'm sure I'll miss his, too.)

    Wow. 1932.

    So, I had to look up Downtown. I lived in England from 73-76 and at the end of my stay there it seemed like Downtown was the new hit. I heard it all the time. I had no no idea that song came out in 1964! Just the wrong decade to me.

    I randomly started thinking about Kenny G. Back when I was a kid, I loved smooth jazz/.new age. It's not anywhere close to his birthday, but he still does exist, something I never realized.

    If he dodges COVID until June 5th, he'll be 65. Retirement age!

    Larry Storch - 98 (Jan 8, 1923)

    Probably best know as Cpl Agarn on F Troop, but also voiced characters in various films and TV shows.

    Absolutely, positively NO idea he was still alive.
