Guess Who has the Same Birthday as Me?

[Jiveslug]

So my birthday is coming up on the 28th, Ill be 29 years old btw, and I am reminded of why it is that I am supposed to be a racer... You know who else has a birthday on Feb 28? Mario Andretti. hehe. Yup. Its fate, destiny, kismet... whatever you want to call it. Just out of curiosity I checked the web to see who else has the 28th for a birthday. Not a bad list, if I do say so myself...

Jackie Gleason - Yet another reason as to why Im such a funny person.
Bernadette Peters - Um, Im also sexy and sing beautifully?
Gilbert Gottfried - Again, Im hilarious, even if Im a bit funny looking.
Linus Pauling - Aha, this explains why I love physics so much and am pretty much a genious.
Earl Scheib - I dont know. I enable the white trash of the world to get their Camaros repainted?

What about you folks. Anyone cool share your birthday?

[zracre]

"dangerous" dave parker

[JamesB]

wow dave, with shared birthdays like that no wonder your dangerous.

[dave parker]

My father told me once that I was the product of a really good Fourth of July party in 196 :018: .

Knowing my father (he was a Navy fighter jockey) it probably involved a lot of what he called "I & I" (intercourse and intoxication).

One of the cool things about growing up is that you get to figure out what interesting people your parents were before they had kids.

cheers
"dangerous" dave parker

[JamesB]

Yeah, there are a few things I didn&#39;t care to know about my parents prior to children.

The funny part it was no big surprise to my parents when I said I was going to club racing. mom figure it would be motorcycle racing but knew that path dissapeared when I dropped on the highway getting away with minor road rash and writing off the riding gear I was wearing.

So now im just waiting for the day the entire family decides to invade SP to watch me run.

[RSTPerformance]

"I & I" (intercourse and intoxication).

That is great... somehow I will need to work that into a new pick-up line that storms the nation... lol

you "old" :unsure: guys really are "cool" afterall

Raymond "I think I am starting to get old :(" Blethen

Ryan-

Bring it, but your corolla will have to keep up first!!! :cavallo:

[charrbq]

I got curious on this one and had to check. I was getting pretty disappointed with Maria Callas, Daryl Hanna, and Katarina Witt. Then I found Brendan Frasier, Andy Williams, and Charles VI, King of France. Still no racers on December 3. At last...Rick Mears and Bobby Allison! Now I can rest assured that I&#39;m in good company of people who went round and round for a living. The crowning mark was Ozzy Osbourne! :035:

[JamesB]

Raymond "I think I am starting to get old :(" Blethen


[/b]

eh your 3 years behind me. Just remember, your only as old as you act and feel. I still go out during the week on occasion (though I been cutting back on the bar and replacing it with two hours at the gym.) and still outdrink my youngin friends on a regular basis.

[lateapex911]

"I & I" (intercourse and intoxication).[/b]

Raymond, Raymond, Raymond.....

The word on the street is that you need to get the order reversed to have any success....


;)



That is great... somehow I will need to work that into a new pick-up line that storms the nation... lol
[/b]

I can&#39;t wait to see you use the line....and the results...;)

[Ed Funk]

Good thing I&#39;m only as old as I feel B) , &#39;cause I&#39;ve been feelin&#39; someone who&#39;s only 43 :happy204: .

[ddewhurst]

***I will admit that I am not as old as Mr. Dewhurst or Wreckerboy,***

Mr. Parker, being that we all look the same when we pull our our helmets on maturity SHALL be gauged by the number of races completed. Shucks, I didn&#39;t start this insanity till bout 50 races ago. :rolleyes:

***I&#39;ve been feelin&#39; someone who&#39;s only 43***

I remember that, I think.............. :unsure:

Well, today is my little girl&#39;s B-day. 3 years old. So yes, if you thought for a moment, you&#39;re right. She was born on 03/03/03... That&#39;s what I get for having a Math teacher as a wife.

Hmmm, she already wants to race... Wonder what her car number will be...


Oh, and my b-day is 12/26, which means if I go to Canada, I get punched or something like that... Yes, I know, why go all the way to Canada when there&#39;s so many people right here who will do it... :rolleyes:

[spnkzss]

Alright, you all have nothin. March 25th............ Danica Patrick B) The only problem is she was born in 1982 which is 3 years younger then me :wacko: Guess my chance has come and gone.

Other non racing which I don&#39;t know if I want to admit to:
* Franklin, Aretha (1942)
* John, Elton (1947)
* Parker, Sarah Jessica (1965)

[dave parker]

Spanky
I knew that there was another reason that I liked you besides your my friend and racing buddy. Your a fellow Aries.
Of course that also means that you share many of the same traits that I do. :)

I guess we will toast each other at the Spring Drivers School. :birra:


cheers

A lot of those same Aries traits is why we like racing so much ;)

You know I&#39;ll be there. I&#39;ll have the Rum :)

[Jiveslug]

Raymond, I hate to tell you this bro, but I think its all downhill from here. My wife, who just turned 30, btw, is talking about having children! :o ACK! Why does the world INSIST on turning me into an adult. Sheesh. I mean, I used to be young and immortal. My wife thinks its some kind of quarter-life crisis. Heh.

Oh, and just let me get my illegal cam and ported cylinder head and you are ON... cuz thats the only way that my Corolla is keepin up. :D

[lateapex911]

Not having any luck ....
(1939) Marvin Gaye(Soul-Motown)

You know, your avatar DOES bear a certain resemblence...........

[nlevine]

Edwin Drake, the man who built the first oil drill was born on my birthday (March 29) in 1819. How&#39;s that for a racing association?

Cy Young was also born on my birthday, so maybe I should be playing baseball..

Also Oscar Meyer, so maybe I should just have lunch..

-noam

[RSTPerformance]

If it takes you that long to respond, I am not sure how you expect to ever win any race... :cavallo:

Be smart, don&#39;t get a wife, thats what my dad tought me!!! lol... JK, let us know when we have a little speedracer running around :035:

Don&#39;t forget, I might be younger, and a bit more crazy, but I am a steward, feed me enough :birra: and I might let you win without the illegal crap ;)

-jk

Hope all is well!!!

Raymond

[JamesB]

Ahh so the secret to beating you is feeding you enough ballast to slow you down?

[RSTPerformance]

Some might say that... but you will need to get me away from the crew ;) They tend to keep tabs on me :D

Raymond "All in good fun" Blethen

[JamesB]

Oh thats easy, just bring enough extra ballast to weight down the crew.

[Jiveslug]

Well, Im hell-bent on hitting the track before Im 30, which gives me a little less than a year. My Corolla is gonna be ghetto-fabulous, but at least it will be on the track! Hehe. Hey, maybe thats what I should call my racing team: "Ghetto-Fabulous Motorsports." I think for the paint, Ill just finish stripping the car down and park the empty shell on the street in Compton for a couple of days. It should have a nice coat of graffiti in no time....

And Im not slow in responding, I just have a lot to do... like drive myself insane trying to find a specific part. Actually, now that I think about it, in a year&#39;s time, the car may be fit to race, but my brain may not be....

[JamesB]

yeah, I know I will need to retorque the nut behind the wheel after first session at my school end of the month. My goal to was to be racing before 30, I ended up having a car at 30 and my first season at 31. No complaints here other then every time I check over a section of the car I find something to replace or repair.
