I’m pleased to Announce I was born on June 21st.

This, of course means, I am/can be a Gemeni or a Cancer 🙂

Juliana-- Happy 3rd birthday for your son!!!

That I’ve gathered together the coolest group of posters on this board\* and that we should do something. I dunno, maybe we could take over IMHO for the weekend or all hitchhike to Canada, _something_. Otherwise, it’s gonna just be all of us in here saying “Ooh, I was born on June 8”…I know we can do better than that.

I also have to say that I don’t think I have two personalities…I mean, come on, just _two_ personalities, how boring is that?

Oh, and note to **Snarky Poster Who Emailed Me** , FYI I did not start this thread to make sure everyone remembered my birthday. I started it to get out of work, so there. Pttthhhhtoooey. 😛

[sub]\*Note to any non-Gemini posters who might be offended by the above. Um, Hello?!?! What did you expect? \*\*

\*\*Heh, that was Personality #8, her name is TracyEight, she’s PMSing right now, so don’t mind her.

Another June 12th Gemini here! I am for sure a mixture of types 1 and 2. I don’t feel like I have a split personality exactly, but certainly can be mercurial.

**Ryan Klesko** , former Brave and now a Padre. He can be type 1 if he is having a good game, but watch out for type 2 if there is a bad call.

I’m June 7th myself (same day as Prince and Tom Jones, ick!). I can be both types as well (my students stay away when type 2 shows her fangs). I was engaged to a man whose bday was June 3rd and his mother’s was June 5th. Six people in the same room – that was an experience!

One cool thing about being a Gemini… I graduated from High School on my 18th bday. Anyone else have the same distinction??

You know, I bet if we had more May-born Geminis in here, there would be more plotting and scheming and wacky hijinks going on.

C’mon people, am I going to have to do it all myself? Because I really don’t think this board can take much more of my wacky hijinks.

Dear, I have always enjoyed your wacky hijinks. Please continue them. In my house, it is not just me. Wife and Oldest are Gems. It’s wacky hijinks all the time. Except when I want to kill them.

Okay, who else’s SO is also a Gemini? I mean, can you IMAGINE having to put up with someone who ISN’T? BORING!

My Dad is a Gemini, but he’s not very wacky. Well, maybe a little. His name is Bubba, not really, but that’s what we call him. Bubba. He wears only Disney ties with these short sleeved plaid button down type shirt dealies. He keeps an indoor grill in the den by his chair.

His birthday is the day before mine…sigh.

Sorry, now I’m just really, really depressed because he and my mother (mostly my mother) have disowned me and well…this was always “our” time of year.

Double Sigh.

Hmmm… **dropzone** has made me wonder if perhaps it is difficult for people to deal with me. I shall ask around and tell you what they said. All of y’all should do the same…we can get a control group of Picses or something and compare the results, real scientific like. That would be fun, I could make a chart. I like charts.

Gets my mind off being DISOWNED.

Grrrrrr…

(Sorry about the hijack, um, **taterself** )

June 11 – same as Ben Jonson, Richard Strauss, Jacques Cousteau, and Joe Montana. Famous people who died on this date include John Wayne (in 1979 – the same day I was born) and DeForest Kelley.

What is it with June 12th anyway? I’ve known at least four people born that day, now I can add all you to the list too!

I’m a 13th of June man myself.

Been there, done that. To be honest, it was kinda difficult. It was like having 4 people in the relationship. I’m very happily engaged to a Virgo now.

Wow, it seems like one-twelfth of the population of the world is Geminis or something! It also seems that some of them are nice, and some of them are not. Uncanny. 🙂

That’s weird because it seems like 90% of all the guys I’ve ever been involved with were Virgos. Most of them were named Mike. One day, when I have time, I’m going to examine this phenomena.

**nineiron** , I agree, it _is_ uncanny. Spooky, even. 😉

Thank you very kindly. It’s rainy and cool here in NYC so I think it’s going to be an indoor day, a good day to surf the net.

Okay, add one more Gemini with a Virgo. **Saint Zero** is a Virgo, born August 29. My last relationship, which lasted for 7 1/2 years, was also with a Virgo.

Maybe this is worth checking out…

And, **Ad Noctum** , thank you very much for the nice birthday wish for Rick. He did have a nice birthday. 🙂

BTW, our daughter, who will be two next month, shares my birthmonth but is a Cancer. So we have a Virgo, two Geminis, and a Cancer. Our lives are crazy!!!
