Birthday Meme

Mulier Fortis tagged us to complete the birthday meme that's doing the rounds. She suggests using a Saint so as to preserve our "aura of mystery"! After hesitating for all for 2 seconds I chose the 29 January.

So three events:

1) Return to Rome of Pope Sergius III
2) Probable first performance of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
3)A whale explodes in Taiwan (not to be confused with the whale that was blown up by the Oregon Highway Division)

Two important birthdays:

1) Chekov
2) Oprah Winfrey

Death:

1) Racine

Doing this reminded me of why I read books rather than watch TV.
