Oh, right…I KNEW I knew that “Hartigay” name from someplace. Where the hell did they pull “Zoltan” out of, though? Was Jaynie-Poo fraternizing with Satanists as early as 1960? ---

Jaynie was NOT a Satanist, she was a cafeteria Catholic (not that I personally favor one over the other). “Zoltan” is a good old-fashioned “whatever the hell country Mickey came from” name. Hungarian or Klopstokian or Bratslavia or something. ---

Mickey Hargitay was Mr. Hungary - and if “Zoltan” isn’t a Hungarian name then neither is “Goulash” The following folks were also born in 1964: Nicholas Cage, Chris Farley, Matt Dillon, Rob Lowe, Hank Azaria, and six of the most lucious breasts ever to grace the Earth (attached to Teri Hatcher, Courtney Cox, and Juliette Binoche). ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Eve \* > **Jaynie was NOT a Satanist, she was a cafeteria Catholic** Ah, c’mon…EVERYBODY knows she consorted with Anton LaVey, who convinced her to wear miniskirts, and who was cutting a out a magazine picture and turned the page and noticed that he had snipped off Jayne’s head on the opposite side at the VERY SAME MOMENT she was being decapitated in that car crash! Everybody knows that. ---

Until I looked here, the only famous person I knew that I shared a birth year with was **Maya Lin** , the designer of the Vietnam Memorial and the Civil Rights Memorial. That was all I needed to feel good about 1959! But there are also these few names that I recognize… Vanity (Does anyone remember her? The list of has-beens gets too painful to read all the way through.) Linda Blair Nastassja Kinski Anthony LaPaglia Kyle MacLachlan (O Boy, _Twin Peaks_) Tom Arnold Aidan Quinn Fabio (arghgh, please, no…NO! \*Non mi piace!) Sean Bean (Boromir! Of Gondor! At least one person on this list has worked lately.) Sheena Easton (I know I’ve heard of her somewhere. Another has-been?) Martha Quinn Ving Rhames Israel Kamakawiwo‘ole (R.I.P.) Vincent d’Onofrio Victoria Abril Jessica Hahn (from the sublime to the ridiculous) Suzanne Vega (“She looks like an Elf.”) Kevin Spacey Apollonia Kotero (Remember _her_? Didn’t think so. She replaced Vanity in _Purple Rain_.) Rosanna Arquette Danny Bonaduce (“I think I love you” \) Magic Johnson David Koresh (_definitely_ a has-been) Tai Babilonia (The coolest name an ice-skater ever had) Youssou N’Dour (African music. Cool.) Marie Osmond (Oh, no, NO! It isn’t fair! Why me?) Sam Raimi “Weird Al” Yankovic (any relation to Frankie Yankovic?) Sean Young Tracey Ullmann Paula Poundstone Val Kilmer. Not a superstar in the bunch. Unless you count Magic Johnson. Although being in the same gonfaloon as Tracey Ullmann and Val Kilmer ain’t so bad. ---
