I don't know why I didn't get email notification of this post, but nonetheless, here I am! In reply to my new kitty entry, Netherfieldmom posted the following:4everHischild invited me to participate in a tag, and now I tag you. The rules of the tag are to go to Wikipedia and type in the day and month of your birth, excluding the year, and hit search. Then you are to list three events, two births, and one holiday that occurred on your birthday. Netherfieldmom.
Here are the results:
APRIL 12
- 1633 - The formal inquest of Galileo Galilei by the Inquisition begins.
- 1861 - American Civil War: The war begins with Confederate forces firing on Fort Sumter, in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina.
- 1999 - American President Bill Clinton was cited for contempt of court for giving "intentionally false statements" in the Paula Jones sexual harassment civil lawsuit.
- 1724 - Lyman Hall, American signer of the Declaration of Independence (d. 1790)
- 1947 - Tom Clancy, American author
- Yuri's Night, an international celebration of the first human in space, Yuri Gagarin; in Russia (and formerly in USSR), the Cosmonautics Day.
Now....hmmmmm....whomever shall I tag???
