But it beats the alternative, right? :) Not much today, so decided to do a birthday meme.
The Birthday Meme
The rules are to go to Wikipedia and type in your birthday month and day only. Then post 3 events, 2 births and one holiday that occurred on your birthday, then tag 5 friends.
Events:- 1498 – Michelangelo is commissioned to carve the Pietà .
- 1920 – The 19th amendment to United States Constitution takes effect, giving women the right to vote.
- 1939 – The first Major League Baseball game is telecast, a doubleheader between the Cincinnati Reds and the Brooklyn Dodgers at Ebbets Field, in Brooklyn, New York. (not the Cubs, but still good!)
Births:
- 1743 – Antoine Lavoisier, French chemist (d. 1794)
- 1910 – Mother Teresa, Nobel Peace Prize winning Christian missionary (d. 1997)
Holiday:
- Women's Equality Day - United States
I’m not going to specifically tag anyone, so if you’re reading this and want to, consider yourself tagged!
That’s it for today! I’m off to go celebrate being old :)
