Anyway I was just wondering if any of yall share a b-day w/someone that you think is interesting.

Well, my dad and I share the same birthday.

I have met *many* people who share my birthday as well, and I'm always fascinated. No one famous, though.

As a side note, my birthday is the 12th day of Christmas, Epiphany, the day the wise men visited, so if any of you need to dump some golden rings, lords-a-leaping, etc., just let me know.

I have a few weird b-day related items.
I was born exactly 1 hour after jimi hendrix died.
I have a friend with the same b-day, although 1 year later...This is where it gets weird...his dad was born on the same day in '44, along with his mom in '46. How strange that 3 people in the same family all share a b-day.

My birthday is Dec. 25th . . . besides the obvious birth on that day, I know Sissy Spacek, Cab Calloway, Sir Isaac Newton, Humphrey Bogart, Anwar Sadat, Annie Lennox and Barbara Mandrell were all Christmas babies, too.

Apparently yall think its kind of neat too or else you wouldn't have posted (unless you're just humoring this poor lil girl) Thanks for making me feel like less of a nutcase ....
