#HappyBirthday to the #March15 #BirthdayCohort (with @EvaLongoria & @Fabio_Lanzoni (you know, THE #Fabio) & ALL the #FamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #TheIdesOfMarch | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass

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

Holidays Calendar explains 'why we remember the #Ides of March' 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 word “Ides (from the Roman Calendar; 15th of March/May/July/October, 13th of any other month ... #Ide #IdesOfMarch)” is built on ancient words that mean "the Middle Day of a Roman Month" (a word possibly of Etruscan origin; a day when Payment on Debts & Interest usually came Due).

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: Andrew Jackson, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Saint Nicholas, Eva Longoria, Jimmy Swaggart, Dee Snider (leader of Twisted Sister), The Iron Sheik, Bret Michaels (frontman of Poison), Fabio, Judd Hirsch, will.i.am, Rockwell (sings "(It Always Feels like) Somebody's Watching Me"), Jai Courtney (Kyle Reese in TERMINATOR: GENISYS)

... 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 (which tells me which celebrations we (Catholics) are celebrating, and which color Vestments the clergy are wearing) tells us that this day's in Violet
