TODAY IS
Ben Affleck turns 44 today. Or, being a Jennifer Garner fan, the moron is turning 44 today.
Debra Messing from "Will and Grace" turns 48 today. That was a show with a straight woman and two gay roommates. It was basically "Three's Company" in reverse.
Larry Mathews, who played the little kid Ritchie on the old "Dick Van Dyke Show," turns 61 today. Man, that seems like more than half a century ago... wait! It was!
Britain's Princess Anne turns 66 today. That would make Queen Elizabeth's daughter eligible to retire, had she ever started working.
Pat Priest, one of the Marilyn's from The Munsters, turns 80 today. She's closer to Grandpa's age, although he was 236. She looks more like Lilly these days.
National Relaxation Day -- Dr. John Farquhar, author of the book "The American Way of Life Need Not Be Hazardous To Your Health," offers these tips on how to relax.
Find a quiet place, and lie down or sit comfortably.
Tense muscles in one hand, then relax them. Do the same with the rest of that side of your body, tensing and then relaxing each part separately: Forearm, upper arm, shoulder, foot, calf, thigh. Repeat this on the other side of the body starting again with the hand.
Loosen your hip muscles and let a wave of relaxation pass up from your abdomen to your chest.
Now let the wave of relaxation continue into your shoulders, neck, jaws and the muscles of your face.
Finish the drill by imagining your forehead growing cool -- as though you're telling it to chill.
"Practice this drill twice a day," Dr. Farquhar advises, "before meals or at least one hour after you eat. With practice, you will soon be able to attain deep muscle relaxation in as little time as two minutes."
