Share your birthday with someone famous? — Forum Archive

22 Jul 2005, 20:19

It's Friday night, I'm sweating to death (no AC in the Deep South, apparently), and I'm hard-pressed for anything more interesting so....

Share your birthday with someone famous? Sure you do, the odds are in your favor that someone somewhere who did anything of note might have been born on the same day as you. Plus, it makes it that much easier for me to stalk...I mean, get to know you :nervous:

So here's me (October 9): John Lennon, Tony Shaloub, Anneka Sorenstam, John Entwistle

In addition to me, my sis (March 14) shares a birthday with Michael Caine, Quincy Jones, and Diane Arbus (whoever the hell she is)

My brother (March 2), could celebrate his birthday with Lou Reed...if he didn't think the VU were a bunch of queers. But he has no problem sharing it with Dr. Seuss.

Anyway...

she was a famous american photographer who killed herself in the early 1970s.

ok, as for me (november 2):

daniel boone james k. polk warren g. harding burt lancaster pat buchanan (!) stefanie powers (no wonder i loved hart to hart so much) k.d. lang alfre woodard and, most importantly, NELLY!

famous deaths on my birthday (more interesting, i think):

jenny lind (1887) george bernard shaw (1950) james thurber (1961) ngo dien diem (1963) pier paolo pasolini (1975) hal roach (1992)

and an interesting bit of november trivia: aldous huxley and c.s. lewis died on the same day: november 22, 1963. however, their deaths were overshadowed by the death that day of another person--john f. kennedy.
