The beginning of March already. Time flies.
Let's all take a look at some of the names that are having a birthday today. If you like voice talent then Tim Daly is a great one to look at. If you like sci-fi then Dirk Benedict is great and if you like rockers then Roger Daltry is a good one. Finally if you like the ladies then Catherine Bach is a great one to checkout.
As always I recommend doing a search for them on the net.

| William M. Gaines 1922, the publisher and co-editor of EC Comics, and publisher of Mad for over 40 years. Gaines was deeply devoted to his staff, and fostered an environment of humor and loyalty. This he accomplished through various means, notably the "Mad trips." Each year, Gaines would pay for the magazine's staff and its steadiest contributors to fly off to some world locale. The first vacation, to Haiti, set the tone. Discovering that Mad had a grand total of one Haitian subscriber, Gaines arranged to have the entire group driven directly to the person's house. There, surrounded by the magazine's editors, artists and writers, Gaines formally presented the bewildered subscriber with a renewal card. Eventually the trips became more elaborate, and the staff would visit six of the world's continents. |
