The details of the assignment are can be found at their place but the question is....
What funny trivial fact do you remember that you probably should have forgotten a long time ago?
So with this in mind, here goes mine. Not sure that it is EXACTLY what they are looking for BUT.... I was born on Texas Independence day which also just happens to be Sam Houston's birthday too. Being a Texan I thought that this was awesome! Then to find out I was related to one of the Captains that fought in the battle that won Texas its independence from Mexico.
I know this might seem silly to some but I have always remembered the dates, I mean it was easy to remember, but I guess the silly part to me was that I feel a like a proud Texan to share this day with the Republic of Texas and Sam Houston.

WOW no wonder you remember it
I'd have remembered that too. Cool. :D
Ha! What a day to be born. I don't share any famous holidays with my bday!
I'm Texan [not native born, but I got here as quickly as I could]
March 2nd then, huh?
Loved this Fun Monday. Mine is posted. Hopefully this is a bit on the 'FUNny side' too. Drop by if you can, won't you? Happy day to you.
Do you get extra presents or a cake shaped like Texas?
Very cool.
At least something happened on your birthday. :) Good trivia to remember. :)
Very, very cool way to remember Texas history!
I don't think anyone interesting was born on my birthday.
That's pretty cool! I did remember your birthday btw, but when I tried to post it, it wouldn't let me.
I share my birthday with Robert Burns the Scottish poet.
All of my memories are trivial little useless facts.
We share the same birthday!
I was born in Louisiana but have lived in Texas since I was 6.
Even when I was living over there everyone reminded me I was born on Texas Independence Day.
I totally get it. Prince Charles and I have the same birthday on Nov. 14 and when I taught school on a former British island got the day off from teaching because of this shared birthday. I was proud too!
Okay way cool! I have never had sooo many comments.
Shuttle Mom! Now I KNOW I need to meet you. I knew there was something I liked about you. :)
You rock.
I think my bday is the same as JOe Montana's. And the day that John Wayne died.
That's it. I suck. You, rock.
Thanks for playing!

I know some people who were born on christmas or Independence Day grow up thinking all the hullabaloo is over them. I'm jealous.
