Us Sagittarians get no love around these parts...it's all about Aries, Libras, Geminis and all those other motherfuckers that grew up celebrating their birthdays in nice weather, without being overshadowed by Christmas.

And we even have the coolest sign. Everyone else is a farm animal or seafood of some shit. We've got a man-goat with a bow and arrow.

Anyhow, back to dead celebrities.

That and the whole "wait for the after Christmas sales and we'll get you a birthday present". That's when I was lucky and it wasn't a combined present.

Oh and I believe Jane Fonda was born this day too.

Ingrid Bergman did both. She was born on August 29th and died on August 29th. (Michael Jackson is probably the most famous person to have been born that day though). Anyway there is something cool about the completeness of being born and dying on the same day.

I am going to repost because NOBODY commented on Ingrid Bergmans perfect cycle.

It is interesting that she was born and died on the same date. I'm not sure what it means in the scheme of things though... I know she knew she was was dying of cancer and during that time she gave an amazing performance as Golda Meir on a television special. A very exceptional woman!

17 years old is way way way too young to go. Hopefully you have plenty of years ahead before you get to try to hit it on your bday. maybe your 101th bday?
