Interesting web site HERE (http://www.brainyhistory.com/birthdays.html). Ever wonder who shares your birth day?
Checked out mine, March 6, 1967. Apparently, no one but me was born on March 6 in 1967, they knew they had their hands full with my arrival.
I knew that Michaelangelo was born on March 6, but I discovered a few interesting ones I never knew about:
