On the 281st day of the year, according to Wikipedia

Haven’t seen a good meme in ages. Came across this one this morning, on the LiveJournal of Stephen Dedman (Perth SF writer):

Go to Wikipedia, enter in your birthdate (sans year), post three events, two births and one death.

8 October
Events:
1582 – Due to the implementation of the Gregorian calendar this day does not exist in this year in Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain.
1939 – World War II – Germany annexes Western Poland.
2004 – Schapelle Corby is arrested for drug smuggling in Bali.

Births:
1949 – Sigourney Weaver, American actress
1970 – Tetsuya Nomura, Japanese Video Games Director, Character Designer and Concept Designer

Death:
2004 – Jacques Derrida, French philosopher (b. 1930)

Yes, I’m procrastinating. Funny how having to write two papers does that to one.
