**22nd of August 1976**

A portion of chapter nine of Stefan des Lauriers internet published “slightly embellished” autobiography is set on this date. Apparently on that date he took ferry ride with his girlfriend who recieved a single bed from her aunt (in order that the girlfriend would stay so) and joked that he would throw her in the river.

Karl Eidenberger a decorated soldier who achieved the rank of Oberleutnant der Reserve served in the Austro-Hungarian Army during World War I. He died the day I was born.

Self described intense person and Canadian Songstress (not to mention [babe](http://www.sylviedaigle.com/cindyroy/biography.html) ) Cindy Roy shares my date of birth.

I also got seven pages of mail order brides who share my birthdate.

needless to say that wasn’t my whole post,

12th of June 1977

The first meeting of the Westminster Church of Christ (whatever that is)  
Wade Redden was born (Ottawa Senator)  
Ruby Lee Baker died who now resides at Zion Hope Baptist Church Cemetary in Sumter City  
Jessica Justice was born (she’s been in Score magazine a couple times & on something called the boob cruise)

Apparently nothing much happened on this day (at least not on the first 20 or so google page, there are probably 30 or 40 websites dedicated to Wade Redden though)

The most interesting thing I found was the baseball news for the day I was born:  
[http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/chronology/1973JUNE.stm](http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/chronology/1973JUNE.stm)

Also, there was cricket game between New Zealand and England, and some sort of NATO comminique released on that date too.

I also found a lot of mail order brides.

Hmm. On the day I was born, 7th November 1983, a bomb exploded in US Capitol, causing heavy damage but no injuries. On November 7 1883, the state of Colorado accepted female suffrage. Neat.

Using the preferred format (“date of month, year”) I got exactly one hit: a link to a conspiracy theory website’s seventh chapter on the JFK assassination. Apparently, one Albert Osborne was seen in Mexico City that day, with a man “masquerading as Oswald.” Since Kennedy was assassinated by the FBI’s team of 25-30 expert riflemen/assassins based in Mexico, this is very damning. I guess.

More mundane stuff was found using a more normal date format:

Final game at Polo Grounds;Phillies beat Mets 5-1  
USSR orders 58.5 million barrels of cereal from Australia  
The Patty Duke Show premiered on ABC

Exciting stuff, eh?
