TODAY IS

Ben Roethlisberger of the Pittsburgh Steelers is stepping up to the 35-year-line today. Yes, it's his birthday. Like he needs an excuse to party.

Chris Martin of Coldplay turns 39 today. I've heard their music described as "Girl Rock." Agree?

Jon Bon Jovi -- all three of him -- is 54.

• He was born... to celebrate birthdays!
• I believe my wife takes the Bon Jovi birthday holiday off.
• Of course, he's the front man for the group named after him, "Jon."

Laraine Newman turns 64 today. She got her start on "Saturday Night Live" and then went on to be... well, bitter.

And just like Ronnie says, singer Eddie Money hits birthday number 67 today. His biggest hit was "Baby, Hold on" which, ironically, he says a lot these days.

Old Stuff Day -- (Forbes) Even if it's old and unused, something of value could be hiding in your basement or out in the garage. Be sure you're not tossing out something worth serious cash.
