Extispicy: Kallisti's Birthday!

August 16, 2004

Kallisti's Birthday!

Today is Kallisti's birthday, and I've assembled a bit of calendar trivia for her today.

People (besides Kallisti) born on this day:

1897 Robert Ringling, Circus Master
1913 Menachem Begin
1920 Charles Bukowski
1930 Frank Gifford
1930 Robert Culp
1930 Ted Hughes (Sylvia Plath's husband; he was a poet laureate in England, too, but being Sylvia's husband probably made him more famous.)
1931 Eydie Gorme

1946 Lesley Ann Warren
1953 Kathie Lee Gifford

______

1948 Babe Ruth
1949 Margaret Mitchell (Gone With the Wind)
1956 Bela Lugosi
1977 Elvis Presley
1991 Shamu (one of the many killer whales named Shamu)

______

As for notable events that occurred on August 16th -- so many various things happened on this day, I'm just going to link to this long list of them on this site. There were too many I wanted to mention that I thought would tickle Kallisti -- many events from the the roller coaster being patented in 1898 to the Ramones' debut concert at CBGBs in 1974.

Yup, today must be Kallisti's Circus Day, all right, with the roller coaster and a Ringling Brother sharing her birthday.

Detecting Some Actor Trivia

Just a few trivia tidbits about some of the actors who share her birthday, especially for Kallisti. (yes, yes, Kallisti, just laugh at me for what I've picked out as noteworthy ....)

Robert Culp, Lesley Ann Warren, and Julie Newmar all graced Columbo episodes. (Culp was in two of 'em, in fact.)

Robert Culp was born in Berkeley.

I thought I'd recalled hearing somewhere ages ago (I think from you, in fact!) that Timothy Hutton was a Berkeley native, too, but wasn't sure. So, I just did a quick look-up of the actor's bio. Said he'd been born in Malibu, but he grew up in Berkeley (and went to Berkeley High). Also, found out something else I'd never known about him -- namely, that he's the son of actor Jim Hutton!

Now, Jim Hutton was never on Columbo, but he did play Ellery Queen in the short-lived 70s TV series based on that detective series.

Hmm ... Timothy Hutton plays Archie in the more recent Nero Wolfe TV series. Is there a suspicious pattern here or just evidence of the longstanding cornucopia of detective series actors always could appear in?

_______

Oh, and (to borrow Columbo's line) -- JUST ONE MORE THING! -- A very Happy Birthday to Kallisti!

In the ancient era, the viagra influence was nowhere to be found as the erectile dysfunction medication Viagra didn’t came into being at that time. Specific details on impotence and pre-viagra age inform us that in that period men relied on Unani, Chinese, Herbal and other medications to treat their erectile dysfunction.

Who is not charmed by a beautiful and curvy shape? And this desire gets more intense when you have a big flabby body. Of course you won’t like to be a gag at your friend’s party or some gathering. All what you try is different tactics and diet plans to trim down your stubborn fats. But which diet to go for? Everyday you can hear of one or the other new diet in the weight loss market which promises to give the desired results. If you are unable to decide the right one, here goes the answer! For most of the cases, low calorie diet and low sodium diet is suggested by health care professionals and dieticians. It is because these diets are found not only easier to follow but also most effective so far. However, vegetable diets are also preferred as it is healthy and stuffing where you are less likely to starve while dieting. For those who are non-vegetarian, chicken soup diet can be a delight. Other diets include peanut butter diet and popcorn diet that can add fun while watching a movie and stuffing your stomach even if you are on dieting. Well, do you see any problem in weight loss when you have so many choices? Of course not! Just decide on the diet that suits you the best; however, it would be even better if you consult your dietician too. Good luck!

What happens if I miss a dose?
Viagra is used as necessary, so you are not likely to be on a dosing schedule.
http://www.sendviagra.com
If you miss a dose of Revatio take the dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the dose.

What happens if the overdose?
They seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this Generic Viagra Medication.
