Born 8/21

Count Basie was the counterpoint to Kenny Rogers’ ‘Gambler.’

Clarence Williams III was by far ‘Mod Squad’s’ greatest scrambler.
Kasey Musgraves minus fifty is Jackie DeShannon.
Usain Bolt runs like a colt who’s shot out of a cannon.
Wilt the Stilt and Jim McMahon both reached sport’s greatest heights.
Joe Strummer of the Clash was one of punk’s fast thinking knights.
Toe Blake patrolled that frozen lake and rink in Montreal.
And Christopher Milne used to live with his pal Winnie in the hall.
