Countdown to the Willenium

Probably the most commonly asked question I've received throughout my life is, "What's it like to share a birthday with Will Smith?" And it's probably the same response that any who's birthday is March 14 (Einstein), March 6 (Michaelangelo) or August 8 (Sampras) would give:

Incredible.

When you're sharing a B-Day with the Man who wrote "Wild, Wild West", you'd be excited, too. Not only are we both Libras on the cusp of Virgo, but we also work out, freestyle rap and bang Jada Pinkett-Smith. As you can guess, I share a special kinsip with Big Willie.

For example, here's a recent conversation I had with a friend about the upcoming September 25 holiday.

Friend: So what are you doing on Sunday (September 25)?

Me: Well, I was thinking of throwing Will2K, Big Willie Style, Willenium and Wild, Wild West: The Soundtrack into the CD player, hitting random, and just letting the music take over. After that, I'll probably watch I, Robot and Hitch a few times and then call it a night. Why, what are your plans?

Friend: Why are you doing that?

Me: Because it's Will Smith's birthday, you fucking idiot.

Friend: Isn't it your birthday, too?

Me: Oh yeah, I forgot.
