Famous Birthday
Rainn Willson, 42 – He plays Dwight Schrule in The Office – the power-hungry guy who lacks some social skills and common sense. Although he can be a bit awkward at points as he lacks a sense of humor completely, he still makes my sides ache with laughter. Dwight’s into Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica and more sci-fi stuff. I bet if someone would get him something related to that stuff, he’d be totally psyched. If you know someone who’s really into the sci-fi stuff like Dwight, then head over to Target and find tons of collectibles, games and more. Plus, save $5 on purchases of $50 or more when you redeem free Target coupons!
