#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #December3 #BirthdayCohort with @TiffanyHaddish & @AnnaChlumsky & ALL #TheFamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #NationalRoofOverYourHeadDay | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass

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

Holidays Calendar celebrates 'the #Roof (we hope you have) over your head' in a report (on housing & homelessness) 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 “Roof (\ #Roofer #Roofline (a suburban skyline, or maybe 'the line of just one roof') #Rooftop #RaiseTheRoof #RoofOfTheMouth #Roofed #Roofing #Sunroof)” is built on ancient words that mean "Highest Point, Top, |Summit (or Heaven, Sky)" (a foundation shared with words that mean |Cover, |Deckhouse, |Cabin, |Coffin-|Lid, |Penthouse, |Boat-|Shed).

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' ...

This Day's Birthday-Cohort

Astrologically, their sign is Sagittarius ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Brenden Fraser, Ozzy Osbourne, Andy Williams, Tiffany Haddish, Julianne Moore, Daryl Hannah, Katarina Witt, Anna Chlumsky (Vada Suttenfuss, My Girl), Benny Hinn, 

... and many others (most of whom are at the 'Birthday-Cohort' link)---

you might comment telling why we should recognize a special one I missed ...

Or maybe you'd like a reminder of 'where you've seen one of the ones we DO mention'; Ask in your comment!

My Heart of the Nation calendar says that we (Catholics) are celebrating with the clergy wearing White Vestments for the Memorial of St. Francis Xavier
