capri0mniPut the day and month of your birthday (but not the year) into the search window at Wikipedia, and then post three events, three births, and three deaths that happened on that day in history.
The 12th of January
Events:
1592: Titus Andronicus, by Shakespeare, debuts at "The Rose".
1908: The first long distance radio transmission goes out from the Eiffel Tower.
1932: Hattie W. Caraway becomes the first woman elected to the United States Senate.
Births:
1628: Charles Perrault, French folklorist
1863: Swami Vivekananda, Indian philosopher
1908: Clement Hurd, American children's book illustrator
Deaths:
1665: Pierre de Fermat, French mathematician and lawyer
1732: John Horsley, British archaeologist
2001: Affirmed, American racehorse
[Edited to add: Some may say that 43 is too old for a themed birthday party, but now that I know it's Charles Perrault's birthday, too, I'm thinking it would be fun to have a Perrault fairy tale party (He gave us our most well-known versions of Puss in Boots and Cinderella, among others).]
