My grandmother turns 109 the next day, but she's not a celebrity, so the answer is yes.

>Actor John Leguizamo is 41

HAHAHA!

I have friends who did improv comedy with him around '81, and he was no teenager. He looks good for his age.

A question that I suddenly really need to know the answer to: What is the correct pronunciation of Rhys? Reese? Rice? Rhyzz?

I've always thought it was basically "Reese Evans" I think he's Welsh. He's one of my favourite actors ever. I've just watched Danny Deckchair, and it changed my life.

I worked a Keith Sweat/K-Ci & JoJo concert on Saturday in the middle of spiral bands from Dennis, incidentally. Believe it or not, only 500 people bought tickets beforehand, and the promoters sent a bunch of dodgy runners out to Frenchtown, the universities, and the local malls and they gave out free tickets to the concert.
