Very interesting! Pure Vanity thread.
what’s so special about thursday ?
I was born on the forth of July so everyone was partying except my mom.
Wow, I need to tell my daughters about vacuum tubes tomorrow. (They can correctly identify typewriters) I remember as a kid my father would fix the B&W TV and he would take vacuum tubes from the TV that were going dim and testing them at a local store and replacing the bad ones. I guess this was before the days of Radio Shack.
Khrushchev pounded the table with his shoe.
The Rosenbergs were executed the day I was born. I was born in the morning so I guess I shared a couple of hours in this world with them.
Google? Never use it.... Now I have on occasion ixquicked myself and my birthdate.....
Me too. Luke Skywalker ;)

Nothing important on the day I was born. Except me!

Brown v Board of Education and I have a date in common
A famous Australian criminal was born on my birthday.

No. I was too little.
My father decided to retire from DOD electronics work when vacuum tubes became obsolete, but his son works online and his grandson is a transportation planner going all digital
