Birthday meme from [livejournal.com profile] head58/Wikipedia, that is if I'm doing it right.

Three events on my bday:
1453 - Mehmed II begins his siege of Constantinople (İstanbul), which would fall on May 29.
1792 - By the Coinage Act, the U.S. Mint was founded and the U.S. currency was decimalised.
1917 - World War I: U.S. President Woodrow Wilson asks the U.S. Congress for a declaration of war on Germany.

Two Births:
1867 - Eugen Sandow, German bodybuilder and circus performer (d. 1925)
1914 - Sir Alec Guinness, English actor (d. 2000)

One Death:
1872 - Samuel Morse, American inventor (b. 1791)

You go to the On This Day thing On Wikipedia, pull 3 events, 2 births and 1 death for your birthday.

All I can think of is that bit on "Family Guy" where Peter is trying to get Chris in shape, interspersed with scenes of "old-fashioned exercise" throughout.

I'm going to be getting rid of my BCG vinyl (along with a boatload of other vinyl sometime this year). All three 12" singles! Would you be interested? That is, if [livejournal.com profile] head58 doesn't snag them first...
