#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #December19 #BirthdayCohort with #KristySwanson @kristyswansonXO & @CrissAngel & ALL the #FamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #TheFellowshipOfTheRingDay | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass
... or -on 'whichever of these holidays, awareness-dates &/or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'
I expound the #honor bestowed upon Sir Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings (about the hobbit-led fellowship that was crucial to winning the great war of MiddleEarth) in a post 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 “Honor (\ #Honorable #Honoraria #Honorarium #Honorary #Honoree #Honoria #Honors #Honored #Honoring #Honour #HonorRoll #TimeHonored #TimeHonoured #Unhonored #Unhonoured #Dishonor #Dishonour #Honorific)” is built on ancient words that mean |Dignity, |Office, Reputation, |Splendor, |Beauty, |Excellence.
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 (on the cusp of Capricorn) ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: Cicely Tyson, Jake Gyllenhaal, Alyssa Milano, Robert Urich, Kristy Swanson (the FIRST Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Jennifer Beals, football's Reggie White, famous Communist leader Leonid Brezhnev, magician Criss Angel, Tim Reid, Gene Okerlund (professional-wrestling interviewer, announcer & TV-host)
... and many others (most of whom are at the 'Birthday-Cohort' link)---
