And Denzel Washington is just three days older than us. Hands off, oh you of the jackboots, I saw him first!

I was born on the same day as the chick who became the Queen of England…

I wanted to be a Queen! Liz stole MY life!

A bunch of " former footballers" and same day but not year Dragnets Jack Webb.

I did not replace anyone on the exact day I was born…Mary Travers (Peter Paul and Mary) died on my 39th. :frowning:

Stock market was bombed on my birthday in 1920, several devastating hurricanes hit on my birthday in many years…I clearly recall several years of not having power on my birthday and my mother telling me that I was so lucky “because everyone was lighting candles for my birthday!”
