#HappyBirthday to the #June15 #BirthdayCohort (with @CourteneyCox & @LeahRemini & ... you?) on #FlyAKiteDay | @411Holidays @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass
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'---maybe focusing on one of these holidays & or event-anniversaries in each entry)?'
... of course focusing the post on the day's big event ... like today's 'Fly a #Kite'-day (as opposed to February's Kite-Flying Day).
That holiday's explanation is linked through 'the main word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...
The word “Kite” is built on the Screech of an Inferior |Hawk (Bird of |Prey ... the |Flying Toy is obviously named after the Bird because of its Soaring Flight-Method
(also a verb for Writing a Bad Check (Raising Money by Issuing Paper based on Nonexistent Funds)). #Kited #Kiting #GoFlyAKite #BoxKite
Today's Birthday-Cohort
Astrologically, their sign is Gemini ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: politician Mario Cuomo, Courteney Cox, Xi Jinping, O'Shea Jackson (Ice Cube), Helen Hunt, Neil Patrick Harris, Leah Remini, Jim Varney, Jim Belushi, Waylon Jennings, (Mona) Lisa del Giocondo (yes, THE Mona Lisa), Edvard Grieg, painter Nicolas Poussin, Kim & Kanye's daughter North West, baseball-star Wade Boggs ... 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)
