Stealing from Dan'l:

Sturgeon's Lawyer has a fun meme- On Wikipedia, look up your birthday and list three notable events, two celebrity birthdays, and one celebrity death. I'm taking Dan'l's suggestion and linking to the article.

"1666 - Great Fire of London ends: A large fire in London burns out after three days. 10,000 buildings including St. Paul's Cathedral are destroyed, but only 16 people are known to have died."

1774 - First Continental Congress assembles in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

1882 - The first United States Labor Day parade is held in New York City

Births:
1638 - Louis XIV of France (d. 1715)
1929 - Bob Newhart, American actor and comedian

Death:
1997 - Mother Teresa, Albanian missionary and humanitarian, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize (b. 1910)
