That egg-sucking-dog-looking punk Dan Bartlett that works for George W. Bush was 59 months, 3 weeks, 3 days, old on 12/30/1975, the day listed as Tiger Woods birthday.
Daniel Joseph Bartlett (born January 6, 1971), Counselor to the President in the U.S. presidential administration of George W. Bush. The position was previously held by Karen Hughes, who vacated the post in 2002.
Eldrick "Tiger" Woods (born December 30, 1975 in Cypress, California) is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time. Currently the World No. 1, Woods was the highest paid professional athlete in 2005, having earned an estimated $87 million.[1] In 2006, at the age of 30, he won his eleventh and twelfth professional major golf championships[2] and has more wins on the PGA Tour than any other active golfer. He is the only active golfer currently in the top 10 in either career major wins or career PGA Tour wins.
Among his achievements, Woods has held the number one position in the world rankings for the most consecutive weeks and for the greatest total number of weeks. He has been awarded PGA Tour Player of the Year for a record eight times, and he has led the money list seven times (one behind Jack Nicklaus' record). He has been named Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year four times, a record he shares with Lance Armstrong.
This birth date for the fictional character “Indiana Jones” was born in Princeton, NJ, on a day that was 59 years, 35 weeks, before my 3/3/1959 birth. The first movie about that character premiered when I was attending U.S. Naval Academy and the same week as that strike on the Osirak facility in Iraq on 6/7/1981. That must be where the ‘35’ comes from. I wrote earlier about how my symbolic and artificial memories reflect that operation as a time in my youth when I shot a 9-point deer with a 35-caliber rifle. I can’t remember for certain the reason for the ‘35;’ perhaps that was the number on my F-16 Falcon jet.

Dr. Henry "Indiana" Jones, Jr. (also known as Indy), is a fictional professor, archaeologist, and adventurer - the main protagonist of the 1981 adventure film Raiders of the Lost Ark (later retitled Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark), its prequel Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and sequel, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Jones is notable for his trademark bullwhip, fedora, leather jacket, and moderate fear of snakes.
The character is most famously played by Harrison Ford; however he has also been portrayed by River Phoenix (Phoenix played the young Indiana in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade), Corey Carrier, Sean Patrick Flanery, and George Hall (The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles).
In addition to his film and television appearances, the character has been featured in novels, comics, video games, and other media. A fourth film (once again starring Ford) is currently in production; filming is scheduled to take place throughout 2007, with the film planned to be released worldwide on Thursday, May 22nd, 2008.
Release date(s) June 12, 1981
Raiders of the Lost Ark, also known as Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, is a 1981, Academy Award-winning adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg. It is the first installment of the Indiana Jones series. The story introduces archaeologist and adventurer Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford), who is hired by the U.S. government to go on a quest for the mystical lost Ark of the Covenant. Accompanied by his old friend Sallah (John Rhys-Davies) and ex-flame Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen), he must retrieve the ark before the Nazis and his adversary, French archaeologist Rene Belloq (Paul Freeman) acquire it first.
The original film sparked waves of interest in old 1930s style cliffhanger serials, leading to two more films (Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade), pre-production of a fourth film (to be released in 2008), and The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles television series.
The “Magnum, P.I.” series premiered precisely 33 weeks after the failed Operation Eagle Claw.
From 4/24/1980 to 12/11/1980 is: 231 days, or 33 weeks
The “Thomas Magnum” character also reminds me of how people around me that first year at Microsoft started wearing Hawaiian-style shirts on a regular basis.
Magnum, P.I. was an American television show that followed the adventures of Thomas Magnum (played by Tom Selleck), a private investigator living in Hawaii. The show aired eight seasons on the CBS network from 1980 to 1988.
…
Selleck played Thomas Sullivan Magnum IV, a former U.S. Navy SEAL. He is a graduate of the Naval Academy, where he played quarterback, and left the Navy in disillusionment after approximately ten years service.
Magnum lives in the guest house of a posh beachfront estate (“Robin’s Nest”) in Hawaii, at the invitation of its owner, celebrated (but unseen) author of lurid novels Robin Masters, in exchange for his expertise in quality control of the estate’s security. Robin’s Nest is guarded by two highly trained Dobermann pinschers, Zeus & Apollo, and managed by Englishman Jonathan Quayle Higgins III (played by John Hillerman), an ex-British Army Sergeant Major. During early seasons of Magnum, the voice of Robin Masters, heard only a few times a season, was played by Orson Welles.
Thomas Sullivan Magnum was the main character and namesake of the popular and visionary American television series, Magnum, P.I.. Magnum was portrayed by Tom Selleck.
…
Thomas Sullivan Magnum III was born in 1946[1]. Both his father and grandfather were naval officers. Magnum himself attended the Naval Academy, Class of ‘67 or ‘68, depending on the episode referenced. He served ten or more years as an officer in the United States Navy, rising to the rank of lieutenant before resigning from the service in disillusionment in 1979[2], and promoted to lieutenant commander when re-instated. Magnum was a Vietnam War veteran and a former POW who believed his wife Michelle died in bombing during the final pull-out from Saigon. He served in both the SEALs and Naval Intelligence during his Navy years, and as such maintained many contacts in both “communities.” In scenes in which he wore his uniform with decorations, it could be seen that Magnum won the Navy Cross in Vietnam.
After leaving the Navy, Magnum became a largely penniless private investigator-cum-“beach bum” in Hawaii who, despite irregular employment, nevertheless managed to live a comfortable existence thanks to celebrity author Robin Masters's offer of the guest house on his Hawaii estate "Robin's Nest" and use of his red Ferrari in exchange for quality control of the estate security. In the course of the series, Magnum and his friends became involved not only in typical “P.I.” cases but also a wide variety of adventures involving espionage, covert operations, paramilitary escapades, and “lifestyles of the rich and famous.” The private investigator/"beach bum" mix allowed the mix of a strong comic element into the action-drama series.
Magnum invariably appeared in khaki boardshorts or jeans, an Aloha shirt, and deck shoes or sandals. He often wore battered baseball caps of his favorite sports teams, the Detroit Tigers or USC, and maintained an easy-going cool in all but the most stressful situations. Always an imposing and competent man-of-action, Magnum was nevertheless both vulnerable and occasionally bumbling, which made his character appealing to a broad range of viewer demographics.
…
Magnum was endowed with a rich assortment of personality traits, quirks, and preferences. He was an avid sports fan, not only of professional sports (a lifelong Tigers baseball fan), but of American football (being a former quarterback for Navy he evinced an intense fondness for the annual Army-Navy Game that often worked its way into plot lines), and during varied episodes he tried out for a professional football team, coached and played both basketball and softball, and participated in the Ironman Triathlon. Magnum regularly worked out on a surf ski and participated in local competitions, and enjoyed daily swims in the tidal pool off Robin's Nest.
Magnum was an Everyman in the sense that his lifestyle represented every man's dream: coming and going as he pleased in an island Paradise, working only when he wanted to, the almost unlimited use of a Ferrari 308 GTS and other luxuries, a mini-fridge filled with a seemingly endless supply of beer, interaction with innumerable beautiful women, and adventures with his best buddies usually on his own terms.
