Tough quiz if all you have to go by is how old Steven Tyler looks.

I became a huge Aerosmith fan when I was in high school and found out that they rehabbed at the same place my mom did. But they've gone so far off the rails the last ten or twelve years. "Music From Another Dimension" had so much promise, but was largely awful.

Seems like a lot of disagreement on the Woodward front.

Caan & Pelosi sharing a day/year says something although I'm not sure what. Maybe he should trail her through Congress and smash the cameras of anyone who tries to take here picture before dismissively flinging twenties at the would-be photographers. Tyler, as Willets noted, looks 97 while acting 19 Jong's most famous work 'Fear of Flying' was written while she was fairly young and about a decade later than I thought so I was surprised that she was a) not older and b) alive
