Hey, another November 27th Birthday here.  
I’m in 66 and Pldennison is, um, 68?

Huh! Mine seems to be “Surrender” by Elvis Presley - I don’t know what that sounds like, and I don’t think I really want to.

BTW, I am annoyed with myself for remembering this, but I think the other Starsky & Hutch guy was Paul Michael (or possibly Michael Paul) Glaser.

The other guy from “Miami Vice” was Phillip Michael Thomas, and the other guy from “Starsky and Hutch” was Paul Michael Glaser. PMG did NOT record an album that I know of, but his deceased wife Elisabeth founded the Pedriatic AIDS foundation. This knowledge should come in handy sometime if you are into trivia.

I have NO IDEA why I know this.

Neither do I, but I am glad you did. I knew they were triple names with a Michael in the middle, and was irking me to no end. Now that you mentioned it, I remember the Pediatric AIDS Foundation connection but didn’t know she had passed away.  
Thank you. 🙂

Any time, darlin’. I have all kinds of useless info floating around in my head. No wonder I have a hard time remembering what I had for dinner last night!
