#HappyBirthday to the #March12 #BirthdayCohort (with @RonFunches & @JakeTapper & ALL the #FamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #AlfredHitchcockDay | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass
... or -on 'whichever of these holidays, awareness-dates &/or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'
Holidays Calendar explains 'why we celebrate Alfred #Hitchcock' (tho maybe not 'why this day') in a report accessed through 'the bold hyperlink(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see '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 into their Foundation)
The surname “Hitchcock” is built on |Hitch (ancient pet form of the name #Richard) + -|cock (medieval |TermOfEndearment).
The name "Richard (like #Rickard #Rikard #Ricohard #Dick #Rich #Richie #Rick #Rickey #Ricki #Ricky #Rickie #Ritchie #Hardy #Richardine #Rikki #Ricarda #Ricard #Ricardo #Rico, the surnames #Richards #Richardson #Rickard)" is built on ancient words that mean Brave Ruler (Mighty, |Hardy).
It 'thrills me' a little 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 Pisces ... no matter WHICH stars they were born under: James Taylor, Liza Minnelli, Ron Jeremy, Mitt Romney, Jack Kerouac, news-anchor Jake Tapper, baseball's Darryl Strawberry, Aaron Eckhart ('TwoFace' Harvey Dent in THE DARK KNIGHT), comedian Ron Funches
... and many others (most of whom are at the 'Birthday-Cohort' link)---
