Celebrity Birthdays (On Your Birthday)

This past Saturday (May 31) was my birthday. One of the coolest things about birthdays is checking to see who else has the same birthday. I have at least three friends that have the same birthday, so that's cool. Celebrity birthdays are awesome too.

Check out some of the more famous folks who were brought into the world on the same day:
- A poet (Walt Whitman, 1819)
- A pope (Pius XI, 1857)
- A prince (Rainier of Monaco, 1923: married Grace Kelley)
- Musicians (Peter Yarrow, 1938: Peter, Paul, & Mary; John Bonham, 1948: dead drummer, Led Zeppelin; Johnny Paycheck, 1941)
- Actors & Actresses (Clint Eastwood, 1930; Tom Berenger, 1950; Lea Thompson, 1961; Brooke Shields, 1965; Colin Ferrell, 1976)
- Athletes (Joe Namath, 1943; Kenny Lofton, 1967; Jake Peavy, 1981)

Pretty impressive list, eh? Doubt any of them listed me on their blog as having their same birthday :).
