The hell? Fidel Castro and I share the same birthday?

[GPDP]

How strangely, um, appropriate.

[scarletghoul]

its because communists LUV 2 SHARE!!!!

[jake williams]

My birthday is the same as Che's official birthday. It's not his actual birthday though because his parents faked it so he wasn't born out of wedlock.

[scarletghoul]

I have the same birthday as Perón... >_>

[Angry Young Man]

I have the same birthday as Hitler :( ffs my mum couldn't have crossed her legs for 2 days so I could share it with Lenin!?

But then I'd be a taurus, so it's a fair enough trade-off. Before the comments stream in, I only believe in astrology inasmuch as, generally, Aries have the best description.

[Pirate Utopian]

I am born on the same day as Nostradamus, Spike Jones, Lester Bangs and Spider Stacy.

Plus a bunch of other people I never heard of.

[Sasha]

descartes, bach, cezar chaves and christopher walken.... could be a lot worse...

What's with all the copy-pasted walls of text? Just pick out a few names that you find interesting, then maybe this thread could be somewhat readable.

I share my birthday with, among others, Dvorak, Sassoon, LaRouche and Pink. Footballers include Gary Speed, Markus Babbel and Morten Gamst Pedersen. My birthday is also Macedonian Independence Day, the birth of Mary and the National Day of North Korea.

Oh and a convicted child abuser from New Zealand. On balance I'm most happy about Rolf Harris.
