Not that exciting of a day...

Taken from Meli Mello

Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births, and one death in your journal, including the year.

November 28th

Three neat facts:
Episcopal Diocese of Hawaii: Feast of the Holy Sovereigns in honor of the founders of the Anglican Church of Hawaii
1582 - In Stratford-upon-Avon, William Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway pay a £40 bond for their marriagelicensee.
1994 - In Portage, Wisconsin, convicted serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer is clubbed to death by an inmate in the Columbia Correctional Institute gymnasium.

Two Births:
1757 - William Blake, British poet and artist (d. 1827)
1962 - Jon Stewart, American comedian, actor, and television host

One Death:
1968 - Enid Blyton, British children's author (b. 1897)


Interesting factoid - if I had been born a boy, my mother wanted to call me Blake William but was wary because of the poet. Thankfully for herindecisivenesss, I am a girl. Though my middle name is Pamela, so I don't know if she totally made the right call there....*

*Seriously, there is nothing wrong with the name. It's just so NOT me.
