Cool idea, thanks to wikipedia too, but I'm not so impressed with mine - April 19th. The best is probably Maria Sharapova. She's a babe!

However, it turns out that Easter Sunday falls most often on my birthday. So I'm going to claim the resurrection of Jesus. That's gotta be good.

But perhaps not as good as this.... turns out that the guy who invented LSD took his first trip on April 19, 1943! The birth of Psychedelia, that's awesome.

BTW, here's MS, mmmmmmmmm
