happy birthday, chris huber!












me and gertie and the pink bathroom heart you!

according to wikipedia, you share your birthday with the likes of Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Ron Howard, Catherine Bach, Alan Thicke, Glenn Miller, David Niven, and Roger Daltrey. which must be fate, because i share my birthday with Pete Townsend! wow.

on this date in 1994, Nirvana played their last show in Munich, Germany. also, Charlie Chaplin's coffin was stolen from a swiss cemetery in 1978. Australia finally got color (actually, colour) television in 1975, and The Price is Right aired its 6,000 episode in 2004. again, WOW.

anyway, save your appetite for dinner tonight, and try not to have a heart attack when you get the present that i ordered, which doesn't look anything like i thought it would, and the company f-ed up and didn't send part of it. *sigh* i'll make it up to you, though... :) you schmoopy.

did you know...

Happy Birthday to You, the four-line ditty was written as a classroom greeting in 1893 by two Louisville teachers, Mildred J. Hill, an authority on Negro spirituals, and Dr. Patty Smith Hill, professor emeritus of education at Columbia University.
The melody of the song Happy Birthday to You was composed by Mildred J. Hill, a schoolteacher born in Louisville, KY, on June 27, 1859. The song was first published in 1893, with the lyrics written by her sister, Patty Smith Hill, as "Good Morning To All."
