Snagged from megwolff:

Go over to Wikipedia and enter your birth date (day and month only).  Then pick 3 events, 2 births, and 1 holiday/observance that occurred on the day of your birthday.

3 Events:

1933 - Adolf Hitler is sworn in as Chancellor of Germany.

1969 - The Beatles' last public performance, on the roof of Apple Records in London. The impromptu concert is broken up by the police.

2003 - Belgium legally recognizes same-sex marriage.

2 Births:

1882 - Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd President of the United States (d. 1945)

1974 - Christian Bale, Welsh actor (couldn't resist this one!)

1 Holiday:  1 Death (sorry, I'm changing the rules - the deaths were far more interesting to me than all the Saint's days in the Holidays/Observances):

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Mahatma Gandhi, Indian freedom fighter (b. 1869)
