Mar. 24, 2007 - ~* Wiki Birthday Thing *~
Carol at She Lives did a fun MeMe and although not officially tagged, I decided to play along...especially since this is my birthday weekend.
Here's the basics if you want to join in the fun:
1) Go to Wikipedia
2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year.
3) List three events that happened on your birthday
4) List two important birthdays and one death
5) One holiday or observance (if any)
6) Tag 5 other bloggers to complete
