Bleme: What Holiday(s) Is Your Birthday?

[dvandom]

1. Go to this page and click on the link for the month of your birthday. Scroll down to the relevant day.

2. Post to your LJ what holiday or holidays are observed on your birthday. If there's more than one, pick a favorite.

July 18 is slim pickings...just National Crysanthemum Day, which may even be an apocryphal holiday.

(Inspired by a certain webcartoonist having her birthday on National Speak Like A Pirate Day.)

I know that my birthday coincides with the murder of Thomas Becket.

Yeah, bad design, but it seems to be pretty complete on the information. And I didn't want to do yet another "go to Wikipedia" thing. ;)

May 19 was Victoria Day this year, but it's a floating holiday like Thanksgiving or Memorial Day, so it really doesn't count.

The listed birthdays I already knew: Malcolm X, Ho Chi Minh, and Pete Townshend. International Smash Your Guitar Day, perhaps?

Liberate Your Guitar From The Oppressors day?

A couple of movable feasts on 3/21 (Purim and Good Friday), occasionally the Vernal Equinox but not this year. And I share a birthday with Mark Waid, which impresses me more than any of the listed celebs.

Mine is just one I knew about. Not really a holiday... but maybe a holy day.
