boredom
After completing a website I was working on freelance/for a friend, I’m up for a slightly narcsissistic e-adventure. I’ve copied Jess’s blog (Demented Reality – see blog links) in doing this:
1. Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (but not the year).
2. List 3 events, 2 births, and 2 deaths.
I think I’ve already mentioned Tegan and Sara Quin, Jeremy Jordan all having the same birthday as me, so I shall pick others…
Events:
- 1893 – Women’s suffrage: In New Zealand, the Electoral Act of 1893 is consented to by the governor giving all women in New Zealand the right to vote, beginning with the 1893 New Zealand general election.
- 1982 – Scott Fahlman posts the first recorded instance of the emoticon
to an online bulletin board. - 2003 – Musician Elliott Smith plays his final concert at Redfest in Salt Lake City, Utah, only weeks before his suicide. damn!
Births:
- 1934 – Brian Epstein, English musical group manager (the Beatles) (d. 1967)
- 1949 – Twiggy Lawson, English model
Deaths:
- 1881 – James Garfield, 20th President of the United States (b. 1831)
- 2003 – Slim Dusty, Australian singer (b. 1927)
