If I had known this thread existed, I would have posted that 6 days ago it was my birthday...it was only different from any other day in that it involved a couple presents, and I felt in no way elated or happy...at all...so cold...so very cold.

Apparently My Birthday [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/July_24] is shared with many historical events and notable people, but the truly interesting ones I think are;

1972 - Kaiō Hiroyuki, Japanese sumo wrestler

1985 - Teagan Presley, American pornographic actress

And last but certainly not least;

1988 - Luke Mitchell, Scottish murderer

I was just highlighting those words for shits and giggles, but the message I've inadvertently left there is pretty lulworthy.
