Thanks for posting this @Pearlee as I've been a longtime fan of his. I do forget he used to be a Q host.

@KKJ He was a hoot as a QVC host. He used to get away with a lot! He was so fun! 👍

@Pearlee Thanks for posting! Mike is a voice of reason in these crazy times! I love that he promotes vocational/technical education.

I always found him quite handsome. Is he married?

I find it interesting that he was an opera singer at one time. I don't think he's married.

@KKJ

No, he isn't married. Last I read, he is in a LTR (long term relationship).

He's great. Many years ago we saw him on Johnny Carson (gives you some idea as to how long it's been) and they showed a clip of him selling Capodimonte stuff. The audience howled with laughter and he laughed too and said he was embarrassed that he had ever pitched that line! It was a great interview.

@Love my grandkids I vaguely remember that although I didn't remember what the product was.

@KKJ Me too. In his QVC days he had a boyish, mischievous look, probably because he was mischievous! 😄

I respect Mike Rowe and his views on vocational education, he has awarded many scholarships I hope he has a great birthday. I also love the respect that he shows towards his parents.

I found him to be likable when he was with The Q many moons ago, but I LOVED him on Dirty Jobs. He made "filth" interesting, and entertaining to watch.😂

I am certain his birthday celebration is anything but boring.😊

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Wow, hope he has a great birthday! Such a fun, playful, yet in other ways, an alert, serious and substantive guy-- I love to see him interviewed for his ideas on various subjects.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mike! 🎂

I would love to hear more of your type of thinking. Tired of "saving for my kids college education". Never any thing about "trades/skills". But where are the jobs now? Those with a degree, or those with trade skills?

Have a great day Mike, a BIG one is coming next year.

@Pearlee It was some kind of figurines. They had flowers, birds and that kind of stuff. My mom actually bought a piece of it! It was awful and she always had good taste so I was surprised. When she died I was in charge of things so I tosssed it. No one wanted it.

I Googled him. If you have time, go to mikerowe.com and read his bio. It's hilarious and obviously written by him. Including saying QVC fired him after three years "for making fun of products and belittling viewers.". 😆 He did do that!

@Pearlee He did and it was fun to see!
