		<description>1- Nov. 25, sometimes Thanksgiving falls on my birthday (I believe my 1st, 7th, 13th and 18th birthdays so far) and JFK was buried on my birthday.

2- &quot;What &#039;cha doing?&quot;
&quot;Writing in my gournal. I write my thoughts in it every day.&quot;
&quot;Oh, you mean a journal?&quot;
&quot;Yeah, whatever. I guess I&#039;m not all smart like you.&quot;</description>

		<description>1)Pebbles and Bamm Bamm got married on my birthday in 1993.

2)My second favorite quote is &quot;No no, it&#039;s just a flesh wound!&quot; from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

3)Once when I was in 9th grade the entire state of Georgia missed school because of a gas crisis. This was shortly after hurricane Katrina.

4) In my opinion the best friendship under the weirdest circumstances was forged by my best friend and I after I nearly drowned her when we were 12.</description>

		<description>In 1966, Andy Dufresne escaped from Shawshank prison. All they found of him was a muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old rock hammer, damn near worn down to the nub. I used to think it would take six-hundred years to tunnel under the wall with it. Old Andy did it in less than twenty.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m quite late to the party, but I thought I would throw in my answers!

1. There are several notable events that took place on my birthday, April 15: Abraham Lincoln died after being shot by an assassin, the Titanic sank, and income taxes are due (in the United States).

2. &quot;But Westley, what about the ROUSes?&quot;

3. I woke up one morning, and my lower back hurt so badly that I was absolutely sure that the titanium rods that are screwed into it had come loose.  I rolled out of bed onto the floor, called in, and then called a friend to beg them to take me to get x-rayed.  It turns out I &quot;only&quot; had osteoarthritis, and little bone spurs were grinding in between my vertebrae.

4. None come to mind that haven&#039;t been mentioned already</description>

		<description>Okay, SECOND favorite &#039;Kill Bill Vol 2&#039; quote is:

&quot;Gargantuan&quot;. You know, I&#039;ve always liked that word &quot;gargantuan&quot;, I so rarely have the opportunity to use it in a sentence.

(First is: &quot;I... overreacted&quot;. Second - &quot; Hmm, I&#039;m sorry, Budd. That was rude of me, wasn&#039;t it? Budd, I&#039;d like to introduce my friend, the black mamba. Black mamba, this is Budd. &quot;</description>
