TODAY IS

Sarah Jessica Parker turns 51 today. She's best known for "Sex and the City"... and the TV show, too. She's Mrs. Matthew Broderick, although she had chances to be Mrs. Robert Downey Jr. and Mrs. John F. Kennedy, Jr. She apparently passed on the juniors.

Big day for birthdays in the music world! Aretha Franklin turns 74 today and Elton John is 69. Aretha is the Queen of Soul and Elton is... we're stopping there.

Elton John turns 69 today. About the same year he become popular. Oh, c'mon. It's a little bit funny. This feeling inside... Long live the queen! His Yellow Brick Road has yellowed even more.

Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul, turns 74 today.
  • "H-A-P and then P-Y. One more piece of birthday pie. Serve it to me. Serve it to me. Serve it to me. Serve it to me. Serve it to me..."
  • You know, they call her "the Queen of Seoul," but when I was in Korea, I was told that wasn't true.
  • I'll never forget those words in her song "Respect": "Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me... " Because they're so easy to remember.

Gloria Steinem turns 82 today. She was one of the driving forces of the feminist movement in the 1970s. In fact, it was Gloria that suggested that when burning your bra, you first remove it.

Waffle Day --


Pecan Day -- There is no pie that has more calories, fat and sugar than pecan. Even though some of the 810 calories and 65 grams of fat come from the healthy nuts, most come from the corn syrup and sugar filling.
