It's Your Birthday, It's Your Birthday...
Given the news this morning that Drew Carey will be taking over for Bob Barker, I noted earlier today in a comment on The Loud Mouth of Show that former spokesmodel Dian Parkinson from The Price Is Right was, along with Wonder Woman Lynda Carter, one of the first women I lusted after as a child, before I even knew what the word lust meant. Just super sexy, and all woman.
And of course, there was Wonder Woman herself. I mean, to coin a phrase, Good Christ. I don't know who the target audience for this show was, but if it was pre-teen boys on the verge of puberty, well...bullseye.
Anyhow, turns out it's Lynda Carter's birthday today. She turns 56, and shares the birthday with Barry Bonds, just a few HR off the pace of Hank Aaron. I found this out by going to IMDB with the question - do they organize their archive by birthday?
They certainly do. In fact, I learned that Carter shares a birthday not only with Bonds, but with Michael Richards, porn stars Gauge and Teagan, as well as young Bindi Irwin.
This is the wonder of the internet, no?
