Share your birthday with someone famous?

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

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...

not sure about my birthday, i'll need to look that up. but ngo dien diem was assassinated on my birthday in 1963. good times!

Charles Dickens

My older brother's birthday is also March 14th Tabbs

April 16th-share it with Sir Charlie Chaplin, Dusty Springfield, Sir Peter Ustinov and Ian C's daughter Natalie.

Gary Cooper and Eva Peron (May 7)

I heard my birthday is fireworks day in England (Nov 5th)????

I know that's not a person though.

I don't know anyone who was born on my birthday but I know at least two people who died: Jim Morrison and Brian Jones from the Rolling Stones.

March 17th....

and Rob Lowe looking like the Other Guy From Wham! after two White Russians and a Mescaline.

Yes, everyone born on 3/17 looks as utterly ravishing as above candidates.

4th Feb - Natalie Imbruglia, Kevin Campbell [Everton striker], Conrad Bain [the dad in Diff'rent Strokes].

imdb.com is useful for finding other people on your birthday

Believe it or not... It's Phil Cunningham... December 17th...

Bill Pullman, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Ernie Hudson, Giovanni Ribisi, Milla Jovovich

Aug.3rd :- Martin Sheen, John Landis, Terry Wogan, James Hetfield, steve Berkoff, The Boxer Butterbean,Skin (singer from Skunk Anansie),martha stewart. i think i'll stop there, oh just found tony benett too...not a bad cast of characters i think

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.

24th of May. Bob Dylan and Bo Hamburger. What a combination. The latter is a former Danish cycling pro.

15th August.

Not sure who i share it with. one of the 'royal' family thats for sure. cant be arsed finding out which one.
