1) Go to Wikipedia.

2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year.

3) List three events that happened on your birthday.

4) List two important birthdays and one death.

5) One holiday or observance (if any).

Events:

1.  1184 BC - Trojan War: Troy is sacked and burned, according to the calculations of Eratosthenes.
2.  1509 - The marriage of King Henry VIII of England and Catherine of Aragon takes place.
3.  1901 - New Zealand annexes the Cook Islands.

Births, Death and Holidays! :)

1939 - Sir Jackie Stewart, Scottish race car driver, three-time F1 world champion and former F1 team principal
1947 - Richard Palmer-James, British lyricist and guitarist (King Crimson and Supertramp)

1999 - DeForest Kelley, American actor (b. 1920)

Kamehameha Day, official state holiday of Hawaii, United States, in honor of its first monarch, celebrated with floral parades, hula competition, and festivals

Is quite fun really! :)

I tag anyone who feels like doing it!
