The rules are to go to Wikipedia and type in your birthday month and day only. Then post 3 events, 2 births and one holiday that occurred on your birthday, then tag 5 friends.
3 events:
1915 - World War I: End of First Battle of the Isonzo
1983 - Cold War: Samantha Smith, a U.S. schoolgirl, flies to the Soviet Union at the invitation of Secretary General Yuri Andropov. This one is special to me as she lived in a town near me in Maine. Sadly she passed away just as her life was taking off.
1947 - Downed UFO believed to be found in the Roswell UFO incident.
EEEEK!!!!
2 births:
1940 - Ringo Starr, English drummer and singer (The Beatles) Yay Beatles!!!!
1963 - Vonda Shepard, American singer** Heh! Vonda and Zonda born on the same day!! how weird is that!!!!
