It's late and I am too tired to try and remember what I was going to post about tonight. So I am shamelessly stealing a meme I saw today over at this sight. Please forgive me for being lazy.
This meme is pretty simple (hence the appeal): go to Wikipedia, type in the date and month of your birth but not the year, then find: 3 events, 2 people whose birthday you share, 1 person who died that day, and 1 holiday.
Here goes:
1606: The Union Jack is adopted as the national flag of Great Britain
1861: The Civil War starts with Confederate forces firing on Fort Sumter
1955: The polio vaccine developed by Dr. Jonas Salk is declared safe and effective
Birthday:
David Letterman: 1947
Ann Miller: 1923
Death:
Franklin D. Roosevelt 1945
Holiday:
The Roman holiday of Cerealia begins
Who knows what it all means. Give me your thoughts.

Ok man, you must have really been bored...
I thought there were tons of things to do your "city"? Are you sleeping any better?
Thanks for the comments on my blog, it's nice to know I have interesting people reading me...

that you share a birthday with Ann Miller means you can channel high energy at will, lucky man!
