Stolen from drmellow, cuz he's just that cool.  =)

Go to Wikipedia, enter in your birth date but not the year. List three neat facts, two births and one death, include the year.

Events:

• 1788 - Virginia ratifies the United States Constitution and is admitted as the 10th state of the United States.
• 1982 - Greece abolishes headshaving of the recruits in the military.
• 1998 - Microsoft Windows 98 is released.
  

Births:

• 1903 - George Orwell, (Eric Arthur Blair) British writer (d. 1950)
• 1945 - Carly Simon, American singer
• 1963 - George Michael, English singer

Deaths:

• 1533 - Mary Tudor, queen of Louis XII of France (b. 1496)
• 1876 - George Armstrong Custer, U.S. Army officer (killed in battle) (b. 1839)
• 1995 - Warren Burger, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court (b. 1907)
• 1997 - Jacques-Yves Cousteau, French explorer, scientist, and inventor (b. 1910)

I cheated and did more on the births and deaths.  But my world events are boring so at least that part is more amusing.

Wow. Three Georges and a reference to Greece. What a coincidence. ;)

Hehe. Yeah, it's really weird...there's the whole Greece thing, and then he's a big military guy (Custer) and loves Carly Simon and Wham.

When I put in his birthday, I get a lot of redneck/country music stuff...and he calls me a bumpkin, so it's like we are meant for each other. ;)
