Did you know what happened on November 18? I was born that day, a mere 25 years ago (smile)! I was tagged by hifidel to play along in this birthday meme. It looks like fun, so I thought I’d join in! It’s fun and simple to play along.
(The Ranting Redhead also participated. Cool blog.)
Here’s how this meme works:
Go to the Wikipedia site and type in your birthdate
List 3 events that happened on your birthday
List 2 other birthdays that you share
List 1 holiday that falls on your birthday
I’ll continue with the rules after I add my answers:
Events:
326 – The old St. Peter’s Basilica is consecrated.
1493 – Christopher Columbus first sights what is now Puerto Rico.
1803 РThe Battle of Verti̬res, the last major battle of the Haitian Revolution, is fought, leading to the establishment of the Republic of Haiti, the first black republic in the Western Hemisphere.
I share this birthday with:
1909 – Johnny Mercer, American lyricist (d. 1976)
1944 – Wolfgang Joop, German artist, fashion designer and art collector
1948 – Andrea Marcovicci, American singer and actress
Holiday:
Latvia – Independence Day (1918)
Ok, now for the rest of the rules:
There are 5 slots listed below of those who have been tagged. You need to remove the first one and bump the others up one space, listing your name at the end of the list.
Danielle / Christine / Silken / hifidel / Lisa Hurley Downer
And finally, I must tag 5 friends to send this to. I know some of you may be getting tired of these meme’s, so if you don’t want to play, no worries.If you’ve already been tagged, my apologies in advance. Have fun!
