I loved that tune as done by the Andrews sisters!

While in the army I played in the band. The trumpet players had to do funeral gigs around the area which was rough for them as they were the last to board the van and had to sit on the engine cover. They blew Reveille and Taps as well.

Happy birthday Milton Berle. Actually, my mother couldn't stand him as he was a camera hog, sticking his face right up to the lens snd mugging. However in the early days of television I was in grade school and found him very funny. Milton Berle - Wikipedia

Yes, one can only take a stab at the date - no not just on the Ides of March - as he was born under the Roman calendar.

He came up with the Julian calendar. Julian calendar - Wikipedia

which was followed by the Gregorian calendar. Gregorian calendar - Wikipedia

This is all so confusing...

They don't even know the year. From your link:

"The exact date of Julius Caesar’s birth is not known, but historians claim it to be on July 12 or 13, 100 or 102 BC in Rome"

The dating system is rather complex when it comes to historical figures. Check out Benjamin Franklin. He has an Old Style birthday of January 6 and also one of January 17. Benjamin Franklin | Biography, Inventions, & Facts | Britannica.com

Sean Bean - Rotten Tomatoes

Sean Bean is a few weeks younger than I am. I am in good company with 60 or becoming 60 year old movie stars/singers. At least with Sean Bean. Kevin Spacey also was born in 1959.

Marie Osmond is another from my birth year. Donny Bonaduce another.

I took my grade school age children to Disney World in the late 1970s. It turned out to be a shortened summer day visit as they were unable to tolerate the high humidity - high temperature combination although they were accustomed to summer temperatures in the 90s in the desert southwest.

Robin Williams - Rotten Tomatoes

This was my favorite comedian for a long time and he is in the movie August Rush with my nephew.

My nephew is the boy who yells "pizza" in the scenes with Robin Williams in an abandoned theater of some kind! Think he is also in a wheelchair pretending to be disabled. Unfortunately, he gave up on the acting.

Happy birthday Animal House, released July 28, 1978. This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I remember watching it in a theater in Santa Fe, NM with a few other folks my age. We were laughing so hard I nearly fell out of my seat. The younger crowd in the theater didn't seem to get it. The writers could have used my fraternity as a model. lol. Animal House - Wikipedia
