Journal Shadow Wrought's Journal: Helicobacter's Meme 2

A simple 1, 2, 3 mem from helicobacter: go to wikipedia and search your birth date sans year. Share 3 events, 2 births (other than your own, even if you have made it in to a holiday for your minions, er, people; yes I'm tlaking to you eth), and 1 death which resonate with you. Share. Discuss.

Events:

Beheading of Charles I (1649) The execution of King Charles I set the stage for the later birth of the US. It established the pimacy of legislative rule, and without it our own country might never have formed the Constitution that it did.

Adolf Hitler becomes Chancellor of Germany (1933) WW II changed the world in countless different ways. Yet it wasn't until Hitler took the Chancellorship that the die was truly cast.

The Rams win their first Super Bowl (1999) C'mon, you knew that this one had to make it;-)

Births:

Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882) He was one heckuva President. Turned the country around in the wake of the Great Depression and provided tremendous leadership during the first part of WW II.

Charles S. Dutton (1951) One of my favorite actors.

Death:

Orville Wright (1948) I owe my flying habit to him and his brother;-)

      LOL! You came this close *holds finger and thumb within a nanometer of each other* to having me spew Top Ramen out the nose;-)
