#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #October31 #BirthdayCohort with #WillowSmith @officialWillow & @PiperPerabo & ... You?) on #AllHallowsEve | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass
... or -on 'whichever of these holidays, awareness-dates &or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'
Holidays Calendar explains All Hallows' Eve 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)
All #Hallows' Eve is the Christians' name for (and possibly the source of the holiday's modern name) Halloween.
The word “Hallows (\ #Hallow #Hallowed)” is built on ancient words that mean Whole, Uninjured, of Good |Omen (Health ... the English word used to render the Latin that might be better-rendered "|Sanctify").
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' ...

but those are just the ones that I agree are famous;
