> [@Wesley\_Clark](#): > > I’m fairly good at google but how are you guys finding out who was born +/- 2 months of your birthday including the birth year? I typed in “Celebrities born in 1973” and the first link was to IMDb for people born in that year (ranked by popularity). Then I just spammed open all the tabs of people I recognized and quickly looked at each one’s birth date. ---

October 1969 birthdays: Zach Galfianakis Gwen Stefani Nancy Kerrigan Trey Parker Huh. Not much there. Also, not especially surprising to me. ---

I am 5 days younger than Conan O’Brien. A little less than a month older than Quentin Tarantino. A month and two days older than Mike Myers. Exactly 399 years younger than William Shakespeare - who also died on my birthday 52 years later. Jerk. ---

> [@Wesley\_Clark](#): > > I’m fairly good at google but how are you guys finding out who was born +/- 2 months of your birthday including the birth year? Wikipedia - search for your birth year, and you _should_ find a list of births, deaths, and other events, broken down by month. (There’s a couple missing, but unless you’re past 100, odds are on your side.) ---

Without looking things up, most of my life I’ve been aware that I was growing up with Ricky Schroeder and Jade Jagger. (Weird that Jade is a grandmother now!). ETA: I just checked – I was right about Ricky (born two months after me), but wrong about Jade – she’s a year and a half younger than me. Even odder, then, that she’s a grandmother, while I’m just the father of a six-year-old.
