The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsHappy Birthday Mr. Bean
It's Rowan Atkinson's birthday, as well as author E.L. Doctorow.
Further, Merry Armenian Christmas to anyone out there observing the day.
And, have a happy Iroquois White Dog Feast/Sacrifice if you celebrate (many ethnohistoric writings state various reasons for the festival, including symbolism for the changing times, ritual to bring in the new year, etc.).
Ya, I got me a The Simpsons calendar that is so detailed, it's unbelievable. Well, I did the research on the Iroquois festival, but the rest is from the calendar. It has, like, ALL the observances and two or three famous people's birthdays per day, for every day of the year.
It's awesome!

May I ask where you got your Simpsons calendar? It sounds like something I should own, too.

Christmas present, so I'm not sure. It was probably from one of those calendar stores that open up around here during the Christmas season, then shut down sometime in January. Sorry can't be more help there.

Calendars tell you the most invaluable information - such as the fact that my birthday falls on the first day of Passover this year.
I'm sure pass-out is more appropriate.
