Wonder Woman, The Invisibles, Avatar, Lost, Batman, The Muppet Movie, Birdman, Abbie an' Slats.

Why do I have comedian Milton Berle on my birthday list. Surprisingly he fits right in to my themes. Take a look and see if you remember any of his work, I do.


Also one of my favorite cartoons when I was growing up was Birdman. The voice of Birdman was none other than Keith Andes and as always it's his birthday.


And finally, it's not that often when two characters in one movie share a birthday so when two actors from Avatar came up I thought it was worth mentioning.


Enjoy !!!
