Katt's 1982 Birthday - People Magazine

[herald7]

Just noticed this while researching People Magazine's archives:

Katt Gets His Cake

He may well be The Greatest American Hero, but William Katt reacted like any other hungry guy when he saw his surprise birthday cake on the show's L.A. set. "I just had to have a bite," shrugged Katt, 31, whose wife, Debby, son Clayton and actor parents Barbara Hale and Bill Williams were all in attendance. Hero co-star Robert Culp threw the bash because he wanted to present Bill with a new chair for the set—"The one he was using," said Culp, "was the most decrepit thing I'd ever laid my eyes on."

Lol, aw that's nice. I imagine there could have been a photo; too bad the online archives don't include them.

Hey guess what, turns out People Magazine put their back issues online! (I always did like them, lol).

And there was a picture to go along with this GAH story, you guys have to see, lol:

It is a cute photo, but I have to admit, I probably would be a little embarrassed to have cake on my face and it be published in a national magazine. (then again, I am someone who flat out orders people to NOT take me to a Mexican food restaurant for my birthday because they always do this to the honoree).

I can sort of identify, the Mexican restaurant near me always gave you a HUGE hat to wear and sang and clapped at you until EVERYONE was watching, lol.

Nice picture.

Note to self: Take Mel and Herald to a Mexican restaurant on their birthdays...

Lol, it's OK, the food's good right? : D

[MelMac]

I just don't like Mexican food in general either. Prefer Tex-Mex or Chinese myself if I'm doing something other than burgers. In fact for lunch today on my birthday (Ha!), I'm thinking of going and getting a hamburger Ole, which is quite good. I might also get some Gelato, which is Italian.

[herald7]

Oh I'm Italian, I love Gelato, lol, yummy! : D

Happy B day!

Thanks - ours is good, but given that I can also get Blue Bell in my state, it's a hard choice on the ice cream. (Blue Bell is a rather popular brand of Ice cream, just sold in I think now 16 states).
