Wiki meme

Morgen tagged me with this Wiki-Meme.
You go to Wikipedia and type in the month/day you were born. (No year).
Then you list three events that happened on that day, two birthdays, and one death.
Here's mine:

JANUARY 11th:

Events:
1693: Mt. Etna erupts in Sicily, Italy.
1805: the Michigan Territory was created!!!
1949: First recorded case of snowfall in Los Angeles, CA.

Birthdays:
1755: Alexander Hamilton, 1st US Secretary of the Treasury
1956: Robert Earl Keen, American singer
(Bonus: 1970: Mary J. Blige was born the same day AND year as me!)

Death:
705:
Pope John VI
(Bonus death: 1843: Francis Scott Key, the guy who wrote the words to the National Anthem.
.

I'm not tagging anybody.
I love most of you too much for that. :)

Okay, I guess I DID tag you for a meme!!!
So, you created Michigan and made it snow in LA, huh?

I did this last year. It's going around again, but if anyone tags me, I am just going to link it. Or tell them to look in my archives because I am lazy.

Robert Earl Keen---that's keen!

Morgen: YOU FORGOT YOU TAGGED ME???? How could you?!?!! :o

Lynda: Lazy can be good. I'd explain further, but I'm just too lazy.

Mr. Fab: I wondered if you'd notice that. :)

Janna, I was so worried about your gangrene that I forgot I tagged you...

Actually, I was looking in my insurance policy to make sure that if the spot where I tagged you got infected and you sued me for it would I be covered....

Janna said...

Morgen: Are you covered? I plan on suing for at least a couple million...
