I'm 26 today. Here's some birthday meme that has been passed around to everyone on the internet except for me because I'm a big nobody in the Blogosphere. I'm like the Kathy Griffin of the internet. (I feel your pain, Kathy.) Does anyone else watch her reality show on Bravo? I love her. She's my new hero.
Instructions:
1. Go to Wikipedia.
2. In the Search box, type your birth month and day (but not year).
3. List three events that happened on your birthday.
4. List two important birthdays and one interesting death.
5. One holiday or observance (if any).
3 events:
- 1613 - The Globe Theatre in London, England burns to the ground.
- 1863 - George Armstrong Custer is appointed as a U.S. Union brevet brigadier general.
- 1950 - In soccer, United States defeats England 1-0 in the Football World Cup. They recently made a movie about it called The Game of Their Lives starring Gwen Stefani's hubby. I don't think anyone saw it.
2 birthdays:
- 1920 - Ray Harryhausen (He did the special effects for Jason and the Argonauts.)
- 1944 - Crazy Gary Busey
1 death:
- 1967 - Jayne Mansfield Contrary to popular belief, she was not decapitated in the car crash that killed her.
1 holiday or observance:
- The feast of St. Paul. He was beheaded.
Infomaniac has posted a picture of Johnny Depp...in the nude! Sadly, no frontal.
Happy Birthday! :)

Happy Birthday! Cancerians are the greatest. Let's hope I find a full-frontal well before your 27th.
