January 6th, a Historical Day
January 6th is a great day in history. Do you know why?
It's my birthday. :)
But do you want to know why else it's a great day? Read the following.
1. King Harald of England crowned in 1066. I don't know why that's cool to me...but it is. There were actually a lot of kings crowned on my birthday, but i'm not going to list them.
2. In 1759 George Washington married Martha Dandridge Curtis. That's cool.
3. In 1896 the 1st US women's 6-day bicycle race starts in Madison Square Garden.
4. In 1941 FDR's "4 Freedom's" speech was given. I really like that because FDR is my favorite president.
5. In 1968, the Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour", album went to #1 and stayed there for 8 weeks. I like the Beatles okay. I know Rachel appreciates this.
6. 1973 "Schoolhouse Rock" premieres on ABC-TV with Multiplication Rock. :)
7. 1913, Loretta Young (famous old actress, who was also born in Salt Lake City) was born.
8. 1878 Carl Sandburg was born.
9. 1412 Joan of Arc was born. HECK YES!!
10. 1580 John Smith (the cool one in the movie) was born.
11. 1992 Audrey Ogden was born.
Now here is what i'm supposed to be like since I was born at this time. I know you're dying to know, but it was kinda interesting looking it all up. haha.
An ambitious, militant, energetic, and persevering nature. You are capable of enormous efforts towards the attainment of a desired object. The planet Saturn is the embodiment of all that is cautious and discreet. You will never take any important step without profound deliberation and unless you are absolutely certain of the result. There is no speculative element in Saturn. You are skeptical, analytical, somewhat suspicious, slow to accept new theories, but broad-minded and open to conviction.
The mental force is strong, philosophical and scientific in character; you are a deep thinker and a great reasoner. In religion the testimony is inclined to be fanatical in its earnestness, or the mind may swing to the opposite pole and believe in nothing. Above all things, you worship intellect, and can forgive almost anything of your friends if they are endowed with unusual intelligence or talent.
You are exceedingly quick in your intuitions of people and things, but are inclined to be too easily discouraged in your plans, and fall into a despondent state at the first rebuff or disappointment. Your views on love, duty and social economics will be always unique, and on this account you will often be regarded as odd and eccentric by those around you. Being high-minded and independent, you must lead in whatever you undertake or you will lose interest in your work. You abhor restraint of any kind and revolt against anything of an obligatory nature, though in strange contradiction you show profound respect for tradition and authority. Life to you is a very serious but involved problem, and you will be inclined to revel in its most pessimistic phases.
These independent, rocklike characters have many sterling qualities. They are normally confident, strong willed and calm. These hardworking, unemotional, shrewd, practical, responsible, persevering, and cautious to the extreme persons, are capable of persisting for as long as is necessary to accomplish a goal they have set for themselves. Capricorn are reliable workers in almost any profession they undertake. They are the major finishers of most projects started by the 'pioneering' signs; with firm stick-to-it-ness they quickly become the backbone of any company they work for.
Okay, you probably didn't care about any of that. This post kind of came out of boredom. But, i think some of that kind of describes me, some good and some bad. haha, but who believes these anyways right??
That's it. :)
