Billy Wilder and Bill Blass share variants on my name; Wilder directed The Apartment, and I live in an apartment.
Lindsay Wagner played The Bionic Woman, in which she was almost dead but then got all bionicized; I had a near-fatal gallbladder attack, and got all surgicized.
Joseph Papp produced and directed The Pirates of Penzance. I love pirates, and keep a pen in my pants.
Todd Rundgren did "Bang on the Drum All Day"; I once banged a pot around until my mother said "quit that right now."
Anne Morrow Lindbergh wrote Gift From The Sea; I like fish.
H. Rider Haggard was a writer; I'm a writer, and I once rode 'er till she was haggard, if you know what I mean.
George Vancouver surveyed the Pacific coast; I once asked a chick in California, "What're you wearing?"
Meryl Streep was The French Lieutenant's Woman; I ... would rather not talk about it.

I should just lock myself in my room and..wait, I do that already. I did not know about Richard Roundtree though, that r00ls! - but All Movie Guide says he is born on September 7th, wtf???
[Weird Al and Adlai probably are about the same in bed. None of this is indicative of astrology's veracity, btw, since usually you only share at most the degree of the Sun's position with the ones who were born on your birthdate in any given year, out of thousands. The Sun moves slowly, and is not the significator of either personality or one's life's path/karmic destiny - in Vedic astrology/ Jyotish, at least! ]
