I used to be the same age as Harry Potter(July 31) until they retroactively made him older than me.
Apparently Moby Dick was published in the U.S. on my birthday, 1851. Theodore Roosevelt visited Panama, too, in 1906. The tragedy of Lagunillas de Agua in 1939.. November 14th.

Paul McCartney's bday, Roger Ebert's bday, the day Amelia Earhart became the first woman to cross the Atlantic, and I was born pretty much the exact same time Sally Ride was launched into space. I only know this crap because I had to do an intro speech in college about my birthday. There are others things, like the Battle of Waterloo, I think. Also, sometimes it's Father's Day.

Rodney King's beating. Didn't know it for a few years because I was fairly young when it happened.
