Monday was somebody's Birthday! Whose Birthday? Former Football Player and Coach Sammy Baugh's Birthday. How Old Is He? 1,2,3,4... 94! And Never been Kissed By... Death

Sammy Baugh's name appears on "CraigsDeathList.org's" and "Live Free or Die Hard's" rosters

• Baugh was the first coach of the AFL's New York Titans. The Titans would later become the modern day New York Jets.

He must be proud to be the forerunner of immortal coaches such as Rich Kotite, Bruce Coslet, and Herman Edwards.

Monday was somebody's Birthday! Whose Birthday? Author William Gibson's Birthday. How Old Is He? 1,2,3,4... 60! And Never been Kissed By... Death

William Gibson's name appears on "Extended Weekend at Bernie's" roster

• In 1967, he elected to move to Canada in order "to avoid the Vietnam war draft." At his draft hearing, he informed interviewers honestly that his intention in life was to sample every mind-altering substance in existence

... And Many More!
