Awww his grandson is cute! Congrats to Gramps and his family!
I thought Jim Carrey is 48.
He will be this year.
Please delete this ageist comment
I don’t see the point of mentioning his age in the headline. Why not just say, “Jim Carrey becomes a grandfather,” and leave it at that? It’s not like 47 (or 48, as the case may be) is that big of a deal. I could understand mentioning his age in the headline if he was in his early to mid thirties.
Congrats to the whole family!
This number htnuas me, it’s scary! A couple of exmaples..Me and my ex boyfriend starting dating on the 27th, and broke up on the 27th, my current boyfriends birthday is on the 27th, I had a bad car accident on the 27th, the interview for the job I nailed, was on the 27th, the day I got my beloved pet boa, was on the 27th. And those are just the main things. It shows up everyday in at least a small way.Another interesting fact, 3 is the prime factor of 27. My birthday is March 3.
