What day of the week were you born on?
« on: July 23, 2016, 04:44:11 AM »
On Wednesday, one of my childhood bowling friends passed away, suddenly and inexplicably at the age of 38 :'(  I went to his funeral service yesterday, and while it was nice seeing people that I hadn't seen for more than a decade, I wish the circumstances would have been better. The funeral home had his birth and death dates, but in addition, it had the day of the week of his birth (e.g. Friday, January 1, 1982-Friday, July 22, 2016). That said, as calendar savvy as I am, I had to google my birthdate to see what day of the week it was...So, just for fun, what day of the week were you born on?

Harry, I am sorry about your friend.

I was born on a Saturday. I figured that out when I was in kindergarten and my birthday happened on a Friday the 13th. Since the kids were telling me the date was unlucky, I had to make sure I was not born on an unlucky day as well. Seems silly now, but at the time it really worried me.

Thanks, Tom for the condolences.

For what it was worth, I was born on a hot summer Wednesday. I do have a sly friend, Rusty, who is one year younger than me that was indeed born on Friday the 13th!

Monday for me.  Apparently I popped out at 11.57pm so I was to Tuesday. 

I am exactly 20 years older than Barack Obama (we are also both left handed as have been the last 5 US Presidents) and share a birthday with one of my heroes Louis Armstrong.

Oh nooo. That's way too young to leave the world. I'm sorry for your loss Harry.

Believe it or not, your question is the first time that has me wondering what day I was born! I did an internet search to find I was born on a Monday. What about you?

Oh yes, I just noticed on one of your previous posts. Nice! My birthday was on a Wednesday this year.

It was a sunday for me. The last one of that year, actually. Last day of the year period. Born on new years eve here, and damn proud of it. Although at times i think it might have been fun to be born just 3.5 hours later and be able to say i was the first baby of of that year rather than one of the last of the year before. But hey, at least, like all my new year eve and new years day baby brothers and sisters in this world, i dont have to spend a part of the year one age, then the rest another like most people do. And i can rest assured most anywhere i choose to go, there will be a huge  party going on already, all i gotta do to transform it into my bday partyis show up, maybe bring a cake to share with my friends and family who are also there

I was born on a Sunday and my parents brought me home on Christmas Day in a stocking.
