(Love you, Mom...err...Katie :-P )

So I "wiki-ed" (never thought THAT'd be a verb) my birthday and this is what I found...

Facts

1985 - Censorship: Women Against Pornography award their "Pig Award" to Huggies Diapers, claiming that the television ads had "crossed the line between eye-catching and porn."
2004 - Belgian brewer Interbrew and Brazilian rival AmBev agreed to merge in a $11.2 billion deal that formed InBev, the world's largest brewer.
2005 - Rochfort Bridge massacre: James Roszko murders four Royal Canadian Mounted Police constables during a drug bust at his property in Rochfort Bridge, Alberta, then commits suicide. It is the deadliest peace-time incident for the RCMP since 1885 and the North-West Rebellion.

Births

# 1968 - Brian Leetch, American ice hockey player
I'm sure Kevin can appreciate this one. ;-)

Wooooow! I am actually ashamed of the fact that I share my bday with a cult leader. *frown*
