Famous Birthdays Folksy Friday

July is turning out to be an awesome month for celebrity birthdays and I'm really pleased with the cards we've come up with in our Famous Birthdays range!

I thought I'd do another Folksy Friday based on the birthdays for today!  It gets more and more difficult and you'll forgive my tentative connections and pathetic jokes right?  Atta girl/boy!

Murry Wilson
The notoriously tempestuous father of Brian, Dennis and Carl and uncle to Mike Love, Murry Wilson was the original Manager of the Beach Boys.  He passed away in 1973.

Paul Williams
The original lead singer and choreographer of Motown group The Temptations.

Larry David
Comedian, producer and director Larry David is 63 today.  He's the star of Curb Your Enthusiasm and one of the creators of Seinfeld - but I didn't have to tell you that!

Pete Briquette
The bassist, guitarist, backing singer and occassional keyboardist for The Boomtown Rats.  Apparently he wanted it known that he was from the Irish countryside so his name comes from peat briquettes.

Jerry Hall
Model but best known for being Mick Jagger's lady for many a year.  Hey I saw her in something on telly lately, what was it?!
Blonde Girl Plate by Edwina Simone

Bret "Hit Man" Hart
Remember when WWE was called WWF?!  Never been much of a fan myself but I have heard of Bret "Hit Man" Hart.  I couldn't find anything on folksy for him though but I much prefer Hulk Hogan's moustache anyway!

Peter Kay
Funny man Peter Kay is 37 today, he also looks a little bit like this egg?  No?  Told you these were tentative!

Lindsay Lohan
