TODAY IS

Jeff Gordon, the NASCAR driver with two first names, turns 45 today.

Baseball pitcher Roger Clemons turns 54 today.
His nickname was Rocket Man, apparently because he pitched like an Elton John song.
His nickname was "the Rocket" and for the record, it has to do with the speed he throws the baseball.

Mary Decker-Slaney turns 58 today. She used to be a pretty fast woman, if you know what I mean. Yeah, she ran. That's what I meant. She set the mile record of 4:16.71.

Billy Bob Thornton turns 61 today. While he has lots of acting credits, his biggest achievement -- I would think -- would be being married to Angelina Jolie for a while. As hard as it is for us to imagine, think about how she feels.

Coast Guard Day -- the founding of the United States Coast Guard as the Revenue Marine on August 4, 1790, by then-Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton.
