#HappyBirthday to @SarahChalke & @Dean_Devlin & ... you? (the #August27 #BirthdayCohort) on #JustBecause Day | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass
... or on 'whichever of these holidays & or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'
Holidays Calendar explains Just #Because Day in a report linked through 'that word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find you understand words better if you look at 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum)
The word “Because” is built on ancient words that mean By + Cause. #Because #JustCause #JustCuz #Cuz
I sometimes get a little 'thrill' from realizing that I have the same birthday as several famous people, and enough other people get that thrill from seeing their birthday-cohort (both the currently-famous & the probably-not-yet famous) that I figure it's worth doing 'one of these entries for every birthday' ...
Today's Birthday-Cohort
Astrologically, their sign is Virgo ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: wrestling's Sgt. Slaughter, Alice Coltrane, screenwriter Dean Devlin, cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev, Downtown Julie Brown, President #36 Lyndon Baines Johnson, wrestling's The Great Khali, Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman), Sarah Chalke (the second "Becky Conner" in Roseanne), politically infamous Roger Stone, American fashion-designer Tom Ford, Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer), President #15 Hannibal Hamlin ... and lots more I don't recognize (maybe you do recognize some ... you can find the date at the birthday-cohort link)
(and--if you or someone you know about has a birthday today
--please mention them (and how you know them or -know
about them) in the comments, thanks)
