Wiki-d Fun!

I stole this from a friend's blog:

1. Go to Wikipedia and type in your birth month and day (not year)
2. List three events from that day
3. List two important births and one death
4. List one important holiday or observance

Events:
1919: Oregon places a one cent per gallon tax on gasoline, becoming the first US State to levy gas.
1932: Adolph Hitler gains citizenship of Germany, allowing him to run for Reichsprasident in that year's election.
1945: Turkey declares war on Germany

Births:
1943: George Harrison (of the Beatles, of course)
1965: Carrot Top. Yes, really.

Death:
1983: Tennessee Williams

Important Observance:
People Power Day (apparently only in the Philippines, though)

I was a little bemused by the fact that there aren't many important obvservances, but then I realized it's because my birth was extremely important and simply couldn't share the day with major things.
