Do You Know who has the Same #HappyBirthday (the #July5 #BirthdayCohort including @MarcCohn & #HueyLewis @hueylewisnews? on #NationalBikiniDay @history | @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)?'
The HISTORYtrade; behind National #Bikini 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 “Bikini” (the |Swimwear named after the |Atoll where the U.S. had tested the Nuclear Bomb the week before the |Swim|suit was introduced) is built on ancient words that mean "Coconut-Surface"
(the comparison to the |swimwear's Explosive Effect on people's Libido, see also Bomb|shell).
#BikiniAtoll #Trikini (held on with Velcro) #Monokini (the bottom- of the two-piece swimsuit, also based on the mistaken notion that "Bi-" was an individual element of the original word)
Today's Birthday-Cohort
Astrologically, their sign is Cancer ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Marc Cohn (who sings "Walkin` in Memphis"), P.T. Barnum, RZA, Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie Peyton), Huey Lewis, Katherine Helmond (Mona on Who's the Boss?), Don Stark (next-door neighbor Bob Pinciotti on That 70s Show), WWFer Hillbilly Jim ... and lots more I don't recognize (maybe you do recognize some ... you can find the date at the birthday-cohort link)
