#HappyBirthday to the #June30 #BirthdayCohort (with @DavidAlanGrier & #SebastianManiscalco @SebastianCOMEDY & ... you?) on #internationalAsteroidDay @NASAJPL | @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)?'
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory's plan for this Asteroid-day 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 “Asteroid” (as opposed to "Comet" or "Meteor") is built on ancient words that mean Star-Like (-Formed, -Shaped).
Today's Birthday-Cohort
Astrologically, their sign is Cancer ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: David Alan Grier, comedian Sebastian Maniscalco, Mike Tyson, Vincent D'Onofrio, Michael Phelps, Lena Horne, Allegra Versace, Fantasia Barrino, comedienne Desi Lydic (one of my fellow 1981-ers) ... 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)
