My sister is pretty lucky. Her birthday is on August 11th, and she shares a birthday with a few famous people. Will Friedle, Hulk Hogan, Jerry Fallwell (that's almost a bigger claim to fame then Anna Nicole Smith, DM!) and...so DM doesn't kick me...Joshua "Phatty" Olds and Jacob "Crouton" Olds of Family Force 5 fame.


HAHAHA! Jerry Fallwell?!
But Jake and Josh definetly help that.
