Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.
Neat Facts
- 1944 ~ Anne Frank is deported from Auschwitz to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.
- 1966 ~ The Zodiac Killer kills his first victim, 18-year old Cheri Jo Bates, in Riverside, California.
- 1999 ~ Miss Saigon closes in London after 4264 performances.
Births
- 1735 ~ John Adams, American revolutionary leader and President of the United States (d. 1826)
- 1885 ~ Ezra Pound, American poet (d. 1972)
Deaths
- 1654 ~ Emperor Go-Komyo of Japan (b. 1633)
There really wasn't a lot of interesting stuff in terms of births and deaths. I was trying to pick people I'd heard of, basically. And there weren't many ^^;; Oh well. Killed ten minutes. And then I got bored, so I plugged Little Sister's birthday in...
Neat Facts
- 1493 ~ Christopher Columbus first sights the island of Dominica in the Caribbean Sea.
- 1955 ~ The musical film Guys and Dolls, starring Marlon Brando and Frank Sinatra, debuts.
- 1975 ~ Television game show The Price Is Right expands from thirty minutes, to one hour permanently.
Births
- 1794 ~ William Cullen Bryant, American poet and journalist (d. 1878)
- 1952 ~ Roseanne Barr, American actress and comedienne
Deaths
- 1990 ~ Mary Martin, American actress (b. 1913)
...okay, so November 3 is officially more interesting than October 30 (lots of presidential elections!). And yes, we're two years and five days apart. Had the same due date, even--November 9. I asked Mom how she and Dad managed to pull that one off, and she replied, "Nine months after Valentine's Day. You do the math."
...I ♥ my mother so very, very much ^__^ Cheers!
