birthday

i’m going to be 32 in one month.

that’s 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2.

and i decided to look up what was happening that day, february 28, 1976. i’ve been told i was born around ten pm that evening.

it was a saturday night. andy kaufman guest starred on snl that night. “Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead!”

it too was an election year, as well as a leap year.

apparently the grammy awards were held that night. it must have been hard for my dad to miss it.

there was a hockey game between two teams called the Cincinnati Stingers and the Houston Aeros. the stingers lost.

“Dr. Boonsanong Punyodyana fell to an assassin’s bullet
at about 1:30 a.m. on 28 February, 1976.”

The Theme from “S.W.A.T.”, the television program, reached #1 on the Billboard Magazine Hot 100 singles chart in the United States on Saturday, February 28, 1976.

Madagascar recognized the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, Western Sahara’s government in exile.

I share my birthday with Australian rugby player Darren Albert, actress Ali Larter, Australian Olympic swimmer Angela Kennedy, and Mexican American Professional wrestler Jeffery Aaron Aguilera.
