Jen shares a birthday with Bob Voros of The Virginian-Pilot, actors William Hurt, Holly Hunter and Carl Reiner, sports figures Pat Riley and Bobby Orr, supermodel Kathy Ireland, Chester Bennington of Linkin Park and late TV star Fred “Mr. Rogers” Rogers.

Plus, today is Proposal Day and it’s Festival of Extraterrestrial Abductions Day. Seriously.

Best wishes, Jen, for a happy birthday!
