Just three days before my dog, Sparky! LMAO j/k

Mine is 10th January, 1978. Ummmm.... same day as Rod Stewart. To make a connection, u have to watch U2 performing Love Comes to Town Live (ZOO TV), the one when The Edge sang the last verse and Bono thinks he's Elvis. So, at the end of that song he says: For a second, I felt like Rod Stewart, is that a problem?

You see, told ya! A Connection!

Hey Miss Zooropa! Mine's February 18 as well! 1973 though, which gives me absolutely no connection whatsoever to the boys. Moving on...

Well that's just bloody typical....my birthday is the only date listed when something bad happens.

For one of my birthday's, I got a sort of "What Happened the Year you born" type certificates

examples of events:

--Disaster as stand at Glasgow Football Stadium collapses

--Louis Armstrong Dies

--Rolls Royce go Bankrupt

--First British solider killed in Ulster

I am obviously bad news

Hehe. I have another friend, Matt who was born on the 19th of August, 1978 as well.

Umm, as far as band connections: well, I was *supposed* to be born on August 8th, 1978 which means I would have shared my birthday with none other than The Edge. But for some odd reason, I wouldn't come out until 10 days later!
frown.gif
Poor Mom, it was awful on her, as the heat was bad, my 2 year old brother had chicken pox a week before I was born (so I was already 3 days late at that point) and then I was born by C-sect!

Hey, those birthday printouts are funny!
smile.gif
LOL at this resturant where I live, if you bring your license on your b-day they take 8 dollars off your meal, give you a brownie with ice cream and they also print out a fact sheet about your birthday. I have about five of 'em. Robert Redford, Patrick Swayze and Malcolm Jamal Warner all share my birthday.

Hey, my daughter's birthday is August 19, 1989!

My connection is I was possibly conceived the same day as Larry Mullen. I was due on Oct. 31, 1961 but was late and came in Nov.
 
Well, my Birthday is October the 5th.
Hmmm, thinking of U2 connection.....

Aha- Same as Bob Geldoff- relates to Band Aid and of course U2.

Also- a somewhat tenuous link here girls, but anyway, if you put the date as you seem to in the US, with the Month first, and Day second - 10/5- you get the 10th of May! Wow.

Ok so I admit it is not really that valid, but I tried!
 
GRRRRRR-
Ok- this figures! I might be posting this like 3 times but my computer is NOT cooperating, so I apologize in advance.

I am trying to fix a little snafu in which my post was under my friend's user name, which she changed yesterday on my computer to post something, and I forgot to change back. Olive's bday is not on April 11, it's mine, so sorry to everyone for the mixup and to Carrie, too! So check out MY post under olive's name! :{

I hope this goes through!!!
