I was on the IMDB looking at things when I decided to see who in their database shared my b-day. Well all I did was take this link: [http://us.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=25&month=April](http://us.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=25&month=April) and replace the day with 13, and the month with april, so the link to my b-day is: [http://us.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=13&month=March](http://us.imdb.com/OnThisDay?day=13&month=March) In other words, March 13 (1979). I didnt find anyone i really recognized except: Dana Delaney AND L. Ron Hubbard! Golly gee, i share my b-day with the founder of Scientology. Anyone else find anything more interesting than I did? ---

Oh, i forgot to add, they also show who _died_ on your b-day too. The year I was born, Tudor Owen died. He did quite a few films it seems and did the voice of “towser” in 101 Dalmatians. ---
