#HappyBirthday to the #June21 #BirthdayCohort (with @MsRebeccaBlack & @JimBreuer & ... you?) on a good day to Go #Skateboarding | @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)?'

Today's 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 “Skateboarding” (on the model of 'a |Surfboard, but with #Skates ) is built on ancient words that mean |Stilt---maybe "thing that Shakes and Moves Quickly," maybe "to |Vibrate," maybe Leg (|Shank) ... #Skate is also the name of a Flat, Cartilaginous Ray-Fish. #Skating #Skated #Skater #IceSkate #Rollerskate #Skateboard

Today's Birthday-Cohort

Astrologically, their sign is Gemini (on the cusp of Cancer) ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: film-director Lana Wachowski, Jim Breuer, comedian Michelle Wolf, Kathy Mattea, (our favorite Stormtrooper) Prince William (Duke of Cambridge), Chris Pratt, Edward Snowden, Juliette Lewis, Jean-Paul Sartre, Rebecca Black, Merideth Baxter (the mom from Family Ties), Michael Gross (the dad from Family Ties), Robert Pastorelli (Murphy Brown's handyman/lover), Jussie Smollett, "Hollywood sadcore"-singer Lana Del Rey (whom I suspect is 'Emma Watson in disguise') ... 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)

My Heart of the Nation calendar says that we (Catholics) are celebrating St Aloysius Gonzaga, with the clergy wearing White Vestments in the Memorial
