Can you believe George Takei is 76?
This was posted on his Facebook page:
Stopped by Ronald McDonald House in Little Rock, Arkansas and was happy to share some laughs and tears with families and staff of this wonderful place. They threw me a surprise early birthday party, complete with a Starship Enterprise birthday cake. My big 76th is on Saturday (4/20).
When asked what he wanted for his birthday present:
Many fans have asked what I want for my birthday. My life's mission--my legacy--is to tell the story of the Japanese American internment. I've worked for 4 years on this show and, by gosh, now we're headed to Broadway! I'd love to see my fans here also become ALLEGIANCE fans.
There's a Facebook page for ALLEGIANCE.

Michio Kaku (pron.: /ˈmiːtʃioʊ ˈkɑːkuː/) (加来 道雄 Kaku Michio?, born January 24, 1947) is an American theoretical physicist, the Henry Semat Professor of Theoretical Physics at the City College of New York, a futurist, and a communicator and popularizer of science. He has written several books about physics and related topics; he has made frequent appearances on radio, television, and film; and he writes extensive online blogs and articles. He has written two New York Times Best Sellers, Physics of the Impossible (2008) and Physics of the Future (2011).
Kaku was born in San Jose, California to Japanese immigrant parents (with Tibetan DNA ancestry[1] ). His grandfather came to the United States to take part in the clean-up operation after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake[citation needed]. His father was born in California but was educated in Japan and spoke little English. Both his parents were put in the Tule Lake War Relocation Center, where they met and where his brother was born.
