TOPIC: I wish I could be ...

Re: I wish I could be ... 17 years 8 months ago #37

Well, Elvis died on my 1st birthday, two days before he was scheduled to do a show in my town.  My mom had tickets, but I don't think that she kept them.  If she did, I could eBay them for Token money...  :lol:

Is it as melodramatic as the day you two got engaged was the day Elvis rolled in his grave when Michael Jackson and his daughter got hitched?

Ha ha....you guys crack me up.<br /><br />Raven was skirting all around it, and Gary had the date right.  Yes, Elvis did die on August 16th, and yes, peridot is the birthstone for August.  That's where I figured someone would figure it out.<br /><br />All of the HIGH gems (garnet, amethyst, peridot, and now ruby) are our birthstones.  <br /><br />DRAKE was born on August 16th.<br /><br />That's the answer!  Jeff was born on the day Elvis was born, and Drake was born on the day Elvis died.  Although, I'm sure Jeff would've loved to have had a fling with Marilyn!  <br /><br />Honestly, when I found out I was pregnant with Avery and got the c-section date, I googled the date and Elvis to see if there was another Elvis connection, but alas, Avery is left out in the cold with her Mommy on the crazy Elvis connections!<br /><br />Happy day everyone!<br /><br />Lori

Lori, thanks for posting the answer!  Those are some pretty cool Elvis connections.  I had a professor in college who was stationed with Elvis when he was in the Army.  <br /><br />Kim

That was FUN!<br /><br />Much more exciting than my birthday...the exact date of my birth was the same day of a famous offensive in Vietnam.  (HINT - yes it is this month...)<br /><br />Any takers...

<br /><br />Interesting.  Hmm...<br /><br />My birthday was the day the U.S. started the Ground offensive in the first Gulf War.
