Meme tag from Michele - Wikipedia MEME

I was tagged by Michele on her blog about a week ago and I am just now getting the chance to participate. :) Thank you Marie for tagging me, this one should be fun and interesting.

Wikipedia meme. Here what you need to do:

Go to Wikipedia and type your birth date (just month and day) into the search
box. Then list:

3 events that happened on that day in history, then
2 birthdays on that day, and finally
1 death that occurred on that day.

Can you guess when I was born? Just a little trivia question for you. lol

Here goes:

Events:
1600 - Philosopher Giordano Bruno was burnt alive at Campo de' Fiori in Rome, charged of heresy. (Can we say brutal?!?)

1933 - The magazine Newsweek is published for the first time. (I guess I didn't realize that this particular magazine had been around for so long! lol)

1992 - A court in Milwaukee, Wisconsin sentences serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer to life in prison. (He didn't last too long in there, but it was a good day for all of the families that lost loved ones to him)

Birthdays on my birthday:

1818 - Frederick Douglass, American abolitionist (d. 1895) (go Fred!)

1963 - Michael Jordan, American basketball player (gotta love Jordan)

1981 - Paris Hilton, American actress and heiress (Ok I know I was only supposed to do 2 of these, but this one blew me away! Never realized that Paris Hilton was born on the exact same day in the exact same year as I was! Now if she would just start acting like an adult like the rest of us! ;-))

Death on my birthday:


1989 - Lefty Gomez, American baseball player (b. 1908) (I actually remember this one happening.)


Now that was interesting and fun, lets see if I can keep it going with a couple more tags.

Jose, I think you will like this one!
Yogacoffeeoutlook, Hopefully you will try this one, and enjoy it. :)

Yes, I am still alive and kicking...

Hello everyone! I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still alive and kicking. Just having a little bit of a hard time adjusting to live without my bipolar and migraine medicine. :) I honestly thought by now that I would have been over all the withdrawal symptoms, but some are still hanging on with a vengeance!

I won't go into details, but lets just say that I am not all that happy of a camper lately and just wish that it would end, and soon, today preferably! lol Oh, listen to me, I am whining! Geez...:P

I have still been doing my online stuff but have seen a significant slump recently due to not being able to spend as much time at it as I usually would. Somewhat disheartening, but I shall still reach my goals that I set for the month, I just need to make myself do it. I don't want to let myself get into the routine of not doing it, as I know myself too well and will probably abandon all of my great ambitions if I leave it for too long. ;)

I hope this post finds you all well and good, and I will try to get a more quality post put up in the next day or two. I have to go over and visit Michele at her blog and see what she has in store for me, as I haven't been able to get there yet.

Catcha later!
