Tagged by Rich Kirkpatrick this time. Here’s the deal:
When tagged, you have to take your
birthday date and find out some things about it. You have to find,
events, other people who were born on the same day, deaths and a
holiday.
I’ve seen it goin around, and now it hit me. So like the others, I stopped by Will‘s favorite site, Wikipedia. Here are the discoveries I found most interesting for June 8th:
Events
- 1789 – James Madison introduces a proposed Bill of Rights in the U.S. House of Representatives.
- 1912 – Carl Laemmle incorporates Universal Pictures
- 1949 – Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell is published
- 1968 – James Earl Ray is arrested for the murder of Martin Luther King Jr.
Births
- 1917 – Byron White, American athlete and Supreme Court Justice
- 1925 – Barbara Bush, First Lady of the United States
- 1977 – Kanye West, American Rapper
- 1977 – Jamie Petersen, American worship leader
Deaths
- 632 – Muhammed, prophet of Islam
- 1845 – Andrew Jackson, 7th President of the United States
Holiday
- World Ocean Day (Hey, sounds like a good excuse to surf to me.)
Alright, so now it’s time to "tag" a couple of you. And the winners are:
Songs of the Closet (and you can’t use any of mine! Don’t worry, I made sure to leave you plenty to pick from.)
Fickle Obsessor
Kuya Jet
