I've been tagged by Vanessa and Sue for the Birthday meme.
Search Wikepedia for the month and day you were born:
Three Events on that Date
1) 1833 Chicago was founded (The city, not the band!)
2) 1851 Isaac Singer was granted the patent for the sewing machine. (How cool is that?)
3) 1908 the first Model T car was built (another love of mine-old cars!)
Three Births
1) 1856 Diamond Jim Brady American financier
2)1881 Cecil B. DeMille American Director
3)1929 Buck Owens American Singer
1 Death (As vanessa said, it's supposed to be one death, but I wanted to include Cleopatra and one of my favorite poets, William Blake. So I kept the 3 theme going and let Henry in on the deal too.)
30 BC Cleopatra
1827 William Blake (poet)
1982 Henry Fonda
Holidays and Observances
International Ponce de Leon Day!

So what is the date?!?!?
Vanessa :-)
I noticed you tagged me, but I'm just now having a chance to post the answer. Sorry about taking so long but as usual I'm way behind on my blog reading - thanks to not being able to read at work during lunch!
