A Meme - Stolen from Suz

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)

1783 - W.A. Mozart's Symphony No. 36 is premiered in Linz, Austria.
1825 - The Erie Canal is completed with Governor DeWitt Clinton performing the Wedding of The Waters ceremony in New York Harbour.

The following one is the coolest I think:

1922 - In Egypt, British archaeologist Howard Carter and his men find the entrance to King Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings.

Births:
1879 - Will Rogers, American humorist (d. 1935)
1470 - King Edward V of England, one of the two princes in the Tower

Death:
1955 - Cy Young, American baseball player (b. 1867)

Almost forgot the holiday:
Panama - Flag Day
