Wiki Meme

It's been a busy day, but this meme seemed really cool.

The rules, go to Wikipedia and put in your birthday, minus the year. Then list three events or neat facts, two births and one death:

Events

1431 - Joan of Arc is handed over to the Bishop Pierre Cauchon.

1920 - Curse of the Bambino: The Boston Red Sox sell Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees for a sum of $125,000 and a loan of more than $300,000.

2000 - The last "Peanuts" comic strip is created by Charles Schulz.

Births

1892 - J. R. R. Tolkien, British writer and philologist

1929 - Sergio Leone, Italian director

Death

2005 - Will Eisner, American comic book artist (a sad, sad event).

Via Ken.
