I just thought it was kind of cool.

"..it is my very favorite gun."

By the way, I had the pleasure of meeting him at a New England Shindig a couple of months ago and for the record: He is WAY better looking in person! And very, nice and funny. ;)

I was being a smartass. Yeah, it's the observed birthday of J.C. 'Cause we all know he couldn't have been born in December and that the December celebration was a takeover of some kind of pagan ritual/festival/holiday thing.

I haven't heard September before. I thought people had figured out that he had to be born sometime in Spring.

And besides, since we don't know the actual date, I couldn't claim sharing his real birthday.

Humphrey Bogart claimed his birthday was December 25th, but it wasn't. I can't think of any notable people who were born on 12/25.

Oh yeah, and Jonathan M. Woodward was great in all his Whedon "hat trick" appearances. Holden is my favorite, though. Maybe he'll be in WONDER WOMAN so he can be Joss' first "fourfer".

And why is a hat trick called a hat trick, anyway?

Just for you, Batmarlowe:

A whole list of famous people born on December 25. Including Sissy Spacek and Jimmy Buffett.

And I have no idea the answer to your hat trick question. Would like to know the answer, though.

You can also type in the date (Use Month and Date like ‘November 26’) on http://en.wikipedia.org for a list of historic people born, historic people who died and historic events.

For example on mine, Cosmonaut Boris Yegorov was born, Pope Siricius died, and Japanese Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo’s fleet of six Aircraft Carriers leaves Hitokapu Bay for Pearl Harbor.

Being a UKer, I've always been excited that my favourite footballer shares my birthday. And he was my favourite *before* I found that out :D

I also share it with my cousin Donna, and George Bush snr...

Also Courteney Cox and David Arquette got married on my birthday.

Thanks, CMS.

That's two sites that say Bogart was born on Chistmas Day. But I swear I've read some biographies that have said he (or a publicist) made it up because it would stand out. But maybe I'm wrong.

Kid Ory, Cab Calloway, Ken Stabler, Larry Csonka, Sissy Spacek, Jimmy Buffett--cool!

Karl Rove? That's just nauseating.

1967 - Reed Diamond, American actor

Not too many recognizable people with my birthday, I'm afraid. :D
