Happy birthday to you, **Biffy the Elephant Shrew** and **Bumbazine** too.

Today is Charlie Watts’s birthday, also.

Shoutouts to **Shirley, featherlou** and **Sampiro** …I was born November 18, 1966.

I wonder what Cecil’s born-on date was. I’m gonna guess Thanksgiving Day 1939…the [question](http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a2_147.html) then becomes whether the Adamses were Democrats or Republicans.

Terry Bradshaw and I are twins but he is still lurking…kinda shy (Virgo trait, don’tcha know). I still have all my hair.

I’ve often wondered whatever happened to Matthew Laborteaux, the kid who played [Albert](http://www.parnasas.com/PopArena/Articles/potato/1newgraphics/little4.png) on _Little House on the Prairie_. He was born the same _hour_ I was on 12-1-66.

We’re BOTH the good twins.

What?  
It’s very cool. Don’t forgot talented and humble, too. We also share our birthday with Jimi Hendrix. Um, different year, though. If you were Canadian, you would be all excited to have been born on the Grey Cup (Canada’s version of the Superbowl).

So, we have a younger triplet, eh? I always wanted a brother.

Wow this is weird.

You were born in 1987, and you’re located in Flint, MI.

In 1987, I was in…Warren, MI. Of course I was 12.

Just kind of interesting.

Well, technically, in 1987 I was in Washington, D.C. But whatever. 😃

My birthday is February 1, 1969, which makes me the very younger fraternal twin sister to Clark Gable (February 1 1901) but he got the height and the good looks, dang it all. My other fraternal twins (nonDopers) include Louis St-Laurent, 12th Prime Minister of Canada (I am Canadian, so this is a treat), actor Bill Mumy (who played Lennier in that great show Babylon 5, among other roles), Boris Yeltsin, Princess Stephanie of Monaco, and Lisa Marie Presley.

Anyone else want to join the party?

July 29, 1978, anyone?

My friend and former roommate **bristlesage** was born exactly one week after I was. We do birthday things together. I guess she’s the closest I have to a Straight Dope twin.

Other than that, I share a birthday with Mussolini. I’m not a fascist, though.

Anyone share mine? May 1, 1978. I have a friend who is the same date, but one year older than me. Another friend has a little one-year-old born on that day but has the same first name as my DH.
