TODAY IS

-
Shaquille O'Neal turns 47 today. Such a big man, he's seriously being considered as our 51st state. Instead of "Happy Birthday," he makes everyone at his party sing, "Love Shaq."

Actress Andrea Elson turns the big 5-0 today. As a special 50th birthday treat, we won't mention that she played Lynn on the old 80s TV series, "Alf."

Tom Arnold turns the big 6-0 today. He was married to Roseanne, so he's got my respect.
His biggest movie was "True Lies." Being only 60 could be among them.
For whatever reason, I remember him best as the guy in the stall next to Austin Powers.
He's celebrating without Roseanne Barr. What more could you ask for?

Rob Reiner turns 72 today. If you're old enough, you know him as "Meathead." He's gone vegan, so these days, he's "Meatless Head."

Dentist's Day -- Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.

Frozen Food Day -- Clarence Birdseye perfected his quick-freezing technique and frozen foods were invented back in 1930. So, how long will frozen food keep?

Frozen dinners -- three to four months
Ground beef and turkey -- three months
Bacon, unopened -- one month
Roasts -- six to twelve months
Whole fish -- five to six months
Fish fillets -- four to five months
Shellfish -- four to six months
Whole chicken or turkey -- twelve months
Chicken or turkey pieces -- nine months
Cooked poultry -- four months

Discover What Your Name Means Day -- There are many sources, online and otherwise, about names and naming. To discover the (traditional or conventional) meaning of names, possibly yours, check out www.ohbabynames.com.

(Men's Health) Discuss with your partner what should be shared. Then follow these rules: Use it long-distance Using social platforms can help maintain bonds, even when you're a continent away from each other. "Social media facilitates connectiveness," says Rebecca Hayes, Ph.D., who teaches communications at Illinois State University. Don't forget saucy uses of Snapchat. Decide about exes Online contact with former lovers puts sand in the gears of your current relationship. Have a chat about how much contact is too much. Maybe it's a total ban, but "if you say you're not going to be bothered by exes, then don't be bothered by exes," says Hayes. Don't dig too deep This may feel irresistible. But diving down the rabbit hole of her online history can breed jealousy. Keep discoveries in context, says Caleb Carr, Ph.D., of Illinois State University: "Don't take it as a competition." Upside: It could provide nuggets on what

ON THIS DAY

Author Jonathan Swift was born on this date in 1667. He had success with the book, "Gulliver's Travels" and thanked all the little people who made it possible.  On this date in 1782, the U.S. and Britain signed preliminary peace articles in Paris, officially ending the Revolutionary War. Almost immediately, red coats were so 1781. And the first series of Time-Life books was born. In 1804, the first U.S. Supreme Court Justice to be impeached, Samuel Chase, went on trial. He was acquitted, but because of his questionable behavior, they named a bank after him.  He was acquitted and went on to lead a Chase and decent life.  He was acquitted so I guess that makes me feel better about my money being in his bank.  When you think about it, that kind of explains where we are today.  Good day for authors: Samuel Clements, alias "Mark Twain," was born on this date in 1835. He kept writing one great book after the other: "Tom Sawyer," "Huckleberry Fi
