Anyone have a birthday today?


Recommended Posts

OK...Admittedly, this is totally irrelevant and meaningless. (Please, no comments about the rest of my posts.)

I'm mildly curious, and decidedly bored. I quit listening attentively to the Razorback basketball game since we are stinkin' up the court.

So the question is: Anyone here share a birthday today?

Don't bother telling me that Benedict Arnold shares my birthday. [;)]

You share the birthday anniversary with Emily Hahn, author of Seductio ad Absurdum: The Principles and Practices of Seduction — A Beginner's Handbook , in addition to a multitude of other interesting books.

She went into the Belgian Congo in 1930 something, lived with pygmy's, traveled to China, lived in Shanghai and Hong Kong pre-WWII, was the lover of Major Boxer the British spy in China, escaped before the Japanese invaded, married a British aristocrat, had children, then escaped to New York where she spent the rest of her life as a favored contributor to the New Yorker for several decades. She continued to go to her office until a few days before she died at the age of 92.

Her response when asked why? "No one told me not to go."

This is a woman I would have liked to have known.

Nope. You're exactly one week too late to share my birthday.

BTW, happy birthday.
