(no subject)
Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat events, two births and one death (I felt two were neat...) in your journal, including the year:
Events
1792 - U.S. President George Washington vetoes a bill designed to apportion representatives among U.S. states. This was the first time the presidential veto had been used in the United States.
1930 - In an act of civil disobedience, Mohandas Gandhi breaks British law after marching to the sea and making salt.
1956 - Fidel Castro declares himself at war with the President of Cuba.
Births
1588 - Thomas Hobbes, English philosopher (d. 1679)
1908 - Bette Davis, American actress (d. 1989)
Deaths
1994 - Kurt Cobain, American musician (b. 1967)
2002 - Layne Staley, American musician (Alice in Chains) (b. 1967)
So - if you're a tortured, brilliant rock/alternative musician, beware the 5th of April!
Also, just because it's neat:
On April 5, 2006 at two minutes past one o'clock in the morning, it was 01:02:03 04/05/06 -- this was the only time that this occurs until 2106
In Star Trek, April 5, 2063, is the First Contact Day. This day marks the first interaction of the human race and an extraterrestrial race, the Vulcans
