Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year. (stolen from Bedlam14)

Even without looking, I can tell ya Boston Massacre's one thing, so ignoring that:

1836 - Samuel Colt makes the first production-model revolver (.34-caliber).
1933 - In Germany, the Nazis win 44 percent of the vote in parliamentary elections.
1998 - NASA announces that the Clementine probe orbiting the Moon has found enough water to support a human colony.

Births:

1898 - Zhou Enlai, Premier of the People's Republic of China (d. 1976)
1979 - Flick Shagwell, British porn actress (The name amused me)

Death:

1953 - Joseph Stalin, Georgian leader of the Soviet Union (b. 1879)

Interesting...:
"Learn from Lei Feng" Day in China. (They apparently just released the game "Learn from Lei Feng Online" last month O.ox I dunno whether to be amused or scared...)
