TODAY IS

-
Aaron Carter turns 29 today. His older brother, Nick, was in the Backstreet Boys. He filed for bankruptcy back in 2013. Hey, who didn't? A while back, everyone got to know him a little better on "Dancing with the Stars" until he was voted off.

Terrell Owens turns 43 today and still won't accept he can't play football anymore.

Edd Hall, former announcer for "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," turns 58 today. Things aren't going too good for him these days. He's had to sell one of the d's from his first name.

Former NBA star Larry Bird turns the big 6-0 today. Unfortunately, a Sesame Street character already had what would have been the perfect nickname for him. I still don't know how he made that shot in the old McDonald's commercial.

Singer/songwriter Tom Waits is 67. It's not an act, he really is that way. He's got a raspy voice. Back when he was growing, while the other kids were playing in sandboxes, he was eating his.

Johnny Bench turns 69 today. He was with the Cincinnati Reds back in the days when being a catcher was only known as a baseball position.

Ellen Burstyn who played the mom in the original "Exorcist," turns 84 today. As far as taking that movie role goes, she doesn't know what possessed her.
