That's right, on December 2, 1974, our fearless and feared (by his opponents, particularly Iowa) leader Pat Fitzgerald was born, and immediately screamed until his face was purple....his favorite color.

So, here are your questions for the comments section:

1. What are you doing to celebrate this holiest of holy days?
2. What type of intense celebration do you think the Fitzgeralds are celebrating today?
3. Does Fitz need to blow out his candles, or do they extinguish from gusts of wind from the force of his eyes blinking?
