Tag is a Game...

This type of game isn't exactly what I had in mind ---

My orders are:

1) Go to Wikipedia
2) In the search box, type your birth month and day but not the year.
3) List three events that happened on your birthday
4) List two important birthdays and one death
5) One holiday or observance (if any)
6) Tag 5 other bloggers to complete  (I never like this part, so i'll pass)
