It's Pretty Much My Favorite Animal.

Raise your hand if you knew that Bird Dogs existed. Raise your hand if you knew they could shoot guns.

Today is somebody's birthday! Whose Birthday? Former Collegiate Basketball Coach Lou Henson's Birthday. How Old Is He? 1,2,3,4... 76! And Never been Kissed By... Death

Lou Henson's name appears on "Haaaave You Met Dead's", "Dead Place's" and "Yiz-Score: 2007 DP Champ's" rosters

  • In 1997, Henson returned to coaching at New Mexico State, after a scandal forced the removal of the school's head coach immediately prior to the start of the basketball season. Henson coached the first season as the interim head coach with a salary of $1 per month.
Seems like a bargain until you realize his record that year was only 18-12 and his team didn't even make a postseason tournament.

Today is somebody
else's birthday! Whose Birthday? musician Ronnie Hawkins' Birthday. How Old Is He? 1,2,3,4... 73! And Never been Kissed By... Death

Ronnie Hawkins's name appears on "Haaaave You Met Dead's" roster

  • October 4, 2002 was declared "Ronnie Hawkins Day" by the city of Toronto when Hawkins was inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame in recognition of his lifetime contribution to music and his generous support of the Schizophrenia Society of Ontario and other charitable organizations.
That's when you know you've really made it. When you are inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame. Ronnie Hawkins, we salute you in all of your Canadianess.

... And Many More!
