Happy 75th Birthday to Mary Tyler Moore, seen here at a Broadway opening in September.
Mary has been a champion of diabetes, and has worked closely with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. As many of you know, my imaginary daughter Amy has juvenile diabetes.
Won’t you make a donation in Mary’s honor? Thanks!

Busy Betty! With not a moment’s rest since her return from Australia, Betty Deuce has been popping up all over the place. I can’t imagine when she finds time to do her laundry.
This is Betty leaving Westminster Abbey this morning after a service marking the 400th anniversary of the King James Bible. I believe those queens behind her are dishing her hat, a modified sombrero with some unfortunate ribbons.
Betty is making her cranky face. She’s not in the mood. Or maybe Phil (behind her) is being annoying for a change.
She’s wearing her favorite pin, the Jardine Star.

TVs grumpy old man, Regis Philbin, is 80 today. Few in TV are as game as Regis — he’ll do anything for a laugh. This guy should get an Emmy just for putting up with Kathie Lee and Kelly Ripa.
Here’s the octogenarian kibbitzing with Borat. How can you not love him? Or at least roll your eyes and say, “Oh, that Reege”?
