This blog is Kell's attempt to keep in touch with friends far away who complain that I don't e-mail nearly enough.

It Was Trixie's Idea

Trixie posts on her blog to type your birth month and birth day into Wikipedia. - and then list the following. I read and obey:

My birthday is December 7th.

3 Events:

1787 - Delaware becomes the first state to ratify the US Constitution.
1917 - World War I: The US declares war on Austria-Hungary.
1941 - World War II: Attack On Pearl Harbor - The Imperial Japanese Navy attacks the US Pacific Fleet and its defending Army Air Forces and Marine air forces at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

I'm listing a couple more - for the bonus Features Section of Kellincatty.

1972 - Apollo 17, the last Apollo moon mission, is launched. The crew take the photograph known as "The Blue Marble" as they leave the Earth.
1988 - Yasser Arafat recognizes the right of Israel to exist.

2 Births:

1956 - Larry Bird, American basketball player
1970 - Carmen Campuzano, Mexican actress and fashion model. You'll notice that 1970 was the year I was born in... Now you know what happens to fashion models inducted into the Witness Protection Program... (tee hee)

Bonus Births:

1949 - Tom Waits, American singer, composer, and actor
1973 - Terrell Owens, American football player = How silly!
2003 - Princess Catharina-Amalia of the Netherlands

1 Holiday:

Pearl Harbor Day. I can't forget this - because for the first 20 years of my life, on December 7, my father would either wake me up or call me to sing "Remember Pearl Harbor!"

Bonus Holiday: In Columbia, they celebrate Día de las Velitas - a Day of Candles.

    Who could be anything other than a good sport if she is forced to face a world sharing her birthday with Terrell Owens?
