I’ve done this meme once before (on April 18 last year). But I’ll replay it here once again using today’s date:
Go to Wikipedia, look up
your birthdaytoday’s date (without the year), and post three events, two births, and one death (including the year they ocurred)
Events:
- 1633 - The Holy Office in Rome forces Galileo Galilei to recant his scientific view that the Sun, not the Earth, is the center of the Universe.
- 1940 - France forced to sign the Second Compiègne armistice with Nazi Germany.
- 1969 - The Cuyahoga River (in Ohio) caught fire, which triggered a crack-down on pollution in the river.
Births:
- 1947 - Pete Maravich, American basketball player (d. 1988)
- 1953 - Cyndi Lauper, American singer
Deaths:
- 1987 - Fred Astaire, American dancer and actor (b. 1899)
