Maybe we'll all learn sumthin!

I was at Mike's blog yesterday and he had posted a Meme that he got tagged for which is probably the best meme I've seen to date I decided to do it too. Check it.

Instructions:

1. Go to Wikipedia.org
2. In the Search box, type your birth month and day (but not year).
3. List three events that happened on your birthday.
4. List two important birthdays and one interesting death.
5. One holiday or observance (if any).

Events:

1. 5509 BC - The world was created, according to the Byzantine Empire.
2. 1752 - The Liberty Bell arrives in Philadelphia.
3. 2004 - The Beslan school hostage crisis begins when armed terrorists take hundreds of schoolchildren and adults hostage in the Russian town of Beslan in North Ossetia.

Births:

1. 1939 - Lily Tomlin, American actress and comedian
2. 1950 - Dr. Phil, American television talk show host (not really an important birth...)

Death:

1. 1715 - King Louis XIV of France (b. 1638)

Holiday or Observance:

Start of the season when oysters are fit to eat (when month names contain an "R"). Which is also the season to have a common cold.

I won't tag anyone. If you want to do this on your site please do so. I thought it was kind of educational!
