a meme to start the week
The parents have been in town, so I haven't been posting much. In catching up with the flist, I figure I might as well do the wiki meme that EVERYONE seems to have done over the past three days.
Go to Wikipedia and look up your day of birth (excluding the year). List three events, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.
Events
55 BC - Julius Caesar invades Britain
1883 - Eruption of Mount Krakatoa
1920 - 19th amendment to U.S. Constitution gives women the right to vote
Births
1935 - Geraldine Ferraro, U.S. Vice Presidential candidate
1980 - Macaulay Culkin, American actor
Death
1974 - Charles Lindbergh, American aviator
There were far too many good events; I had a really tough time limiting it to three! Lots of exciting stuff happened on my b-day, I guess.
ETA- I need a good history related icon... hmmm.... You would think I would have found one already. Must procrastinate by searching for said icon all day.
