Well, it's that time of year again.
That's right! It's my birthday today!
As of 11:00 today, I'm 243. Oh, I remember the good old days of the 1700's like they were only yesterday. . .
Yeah, you heard me right! I was born on Saturday, June 28, 1766. The 179th day of the year, except in leap years. Just for fun, I'll run through a list of events that have happened on my birthday:
June 28, 1838- the coronation of Queen Victoria
June 28, 1894- Labor Day is now an official U.S. Holiday
June 28, 1902- Congress passes the Spooner Act, allowing Teddy Roosevelt to acquire the rights to build the Panama canal
June 28, 1914- Archduke Ferdinand and his wife, Sophie, are assassinated, marking the start of World War I.
June 28, 1919- The Treaty of Versailles is signed in Paris, marking the end of World War I.
June 28, 1964- Malcolm X forms The Organization for Afro-American Unity
June 28, 1992- Estonia's new constitution becomes law
June 28, 2006- The Republic of Montenegro is admitted as the 192nd member of the United Nations.
June 28, 2007- The Spice Girls announce plans for a reunion tour.
These are people with the same birthday as me:
King Henry VIII
John Wesley
Mel Brooks
John Cusack
Steve Burton
Norika Fujiwara
Aileen Quinn
Today is also a holiday [of sorts] in the Vidovdan and Orthodox churches, celebrating St. Vitus.
Well, now that I've given you more information than you needed about June 28th, I have no reason to keep you here anymore! Toodles! heart
And I do accept presents.
