Welcome to The List –
We start today by saying happy birthday to Brett Young he turns 40…”I think it’s just something to embrace, and that just really means more experience in my years, I guess. And so, I’m not really too worried about it.” He really feels unaffected by it, you’re only as old as you feel. I’m trying to convince MY bones of the same thing.

There’s another birthday on The List today…Happy birthday to Capt. James T. Kirk, William Shatner he turns 90! What does he say the secret is? “So, I’m busy, and I think that if there’s a secret to any of this. It’s keeping busy, god genetic structure by the way.” And probably a feisty doctor helps too.

Welcome to The List,
Game show host Chuck Woolery died on Saturday at his home in Texas. . . . TMZ reports that he went to lie down because he wasn't feeling well.
Chuck was the original host of "Wheel of Fortune" back in the late '70s . . . he went on to host the "Scrabble" game show in the '80s . . . and of course "Love Connection" from 1983 to 1994.
He also did some later shows, like "Lingo" on the Game Show Network, and "Greed" on Fox.
There's no word on a cause of death, Chuck Woolery was 83…

Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes is making around $50 million a year. But now, his wallet will be 0.03% LIGHTER . . . thanks to FINGER GUNS.

Let's be honest . . . he wouldn't have been fined for mimicking a bow and arrow . . . throwing knives . . . or dramatically acting out the extremely violent "finishing moves" from "Mortal Kombat". (Although that would be amusing.)
