Happy Marlenedietrichday

It's birthday 110 for the über-fabulous Marlene Dietrich.

Just looking at that photo gives me a desperate urge to slap someone. The only one here is Mary Poppins, so I suppose I'll restrain myself.

Happy Rickymartinday

Welcome to Club 40, Ricky Martin!

Had his madre been able to squeeze it tight and hold him in for one more day, she could have named him Ricky Jesus. It's like Ricky Bobby, but different. 

Speaking of Ricky Bobby, let's watch his prayer to Christmas Jesus, because, really, it's what the season is all about. Can I get an amen? 

Happy birthday, Ricky Jeezus Martin.

Another Dickday!

Lucky us! It's Dickday again! Happy Dickdayyyy! 

Today's spotlight falls on one of the funniest trainwrecks evah, Andy Dick, who is 46 today. Happy birthday, sir. Lay off the sauce, please. We want to see you in films, not tabloids.

Happy Chrisrobinsonday

Let me make one thing perfectly clear: I am ka-raaaay-zaaaay about Chris Robinson.

He is a bona fide original, a true Southern gentleman (met him several years ago---lucky me!) and a hell of a talent. 

He is also 45 today. Happy birthday, Chris! You are Southern-fried fabulousness, honey. 

I might have to consider granting Chris early sainthood alongside Rip Taylor. Maybe. It's a lot to consider. I'll deal with it after the holidays.

Happy Nostradamusday

Happy 508th birthday to Nostradamus. 

What do you think of his prophecies, dahling? Real deal or no? 

Let's see Wikipedia's take on it: 

Most academic sources maintain that the associations made between world events and Nostradamus's quatrains are largely the result of misinterpretations or mistranslations (sometimes deliberate) or else are so tenuous as to render them useless as evidence of any genuine predictive power. Moreover, none of the sources listed offers any evidence that anyone has ever interpreted any of Nostradamus's quatrains specifically enough to allow a clear identification of any event in advance. 

Hmmmm. Your thoughts?

Happy HankIIIday

OMG... Hank III is 39 today. 

I'd better bake a cake or something. Hank III is a big deal in this house. My husband is a huge Williams fan. Whether it's Hank I, II or III, they're all gods around here. 

Happy birthday, Hank! Cheers!

Happy Nikkisixxday

“There is something about spending Christmas alone, naked, sitting by the Christmas tree gripping a shotgun, that lets you know your life is spinning dangerously outta control.” --- Nikki Sixx

Happy 53rd birthday, Nikki. Hope your holidays are far more mellow this year, sir.
