'Ware the Ides of March!

Especially if your last name is Caesar. Or if there's some far out prophecy that involves you and sharp objects. Or if you're feeling especially unlucky. Personally, I'd stay in bed.

Well yeah, time is needed to recover from that special holiday of holidays, March 14th.

Wasn't the Ides of March, March 13?

Well, no, you silly.

Yep, you are correct Jeb. March 15. My bad.

I love having a sinister birthday.

Of course, my wife's is better. She was born the very day that Mount St. Helens exploded. Prophetic indeed.

The Ides is the 15th of March, May, July and October, 13th of every other month. Why? No idea.

My g/f's is Nov 11. A little depressing, but she always has the day off

What's special about Nov. 11th? (as far as having a day off?)

It's Patton's birthday?

-edit-
Also In 1918, World War I ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Veteran's Day/Armistice Day. Supposed to be a somber day of honor and rememberance. Not the most opportune day to say, "Where's my present?"

Hey, at least she's not a Christmas Baby. Never heard of one who was happy about it.

Yeah that Jesus guy is a real attention hog.

"GO SANTA!"

"Hey, but I died for your sins!"

"...go Jesus."

Bah. My wife's birthday is February 29th. At least these other people have a birthday every year!

Are you kidding? That's sweet.

Hey, I'm no freak! She's 8 1/2.

Hey, my mother's Birthday is August 6th, which means she can never really celebrate it in Japan or anything.

My sister's B-day is today, the 15th. I bought her a knife so she can stab people in the back.

Ides, I beleive, means 'middle', thus the middle of the month.

My grandmother was also born on Feb 29th (but we pretend its March 1st). Technically, she's still a teenager.

Wonder if all the US government CZARs are looking over their shoulders today?

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Ave imperator, morituri te salutant.
