#HappyBirthday @Madonna & @TimHutton & ... you? (the whole #August16 #BirthdayCohort) on #Surveillance Day @HappyDays365Joy | @411Holidays @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass

... or on 'whichever of these holidays & or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'

Happy Days 365 explains the best way to celebrate Surveillance 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 “Surveillance” is built on ancient words that mean "to Watch Over." #Surveil #Surveilled #Surveilling

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 Leo ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Timothy Hutton (the leader of the team on LEVERAGE), Taika Waititi, Madonna (Ms. Louise Ciccone), Steve Carell, James Cameron, Cristin Milioti (the title-character of how i met your mother), Angela Bassett, Kathie Lee Gifford, Reginald VelJohnson (the dad on Family Matters), Julie Newmar (a "Catwoman" in the 60s' BATMAN), Frank Gifford ... 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. Stephen of Hungary, with the clergy wearing White Vestments for the Optional Memorial (Green Vestments otherwise)
