The angles sang, and I believe there was some deal involving some wisemen and shepherds, but my mom has never been entirely clear about this.

New York Times says: An arms shipment to Israel is being delayed by the Reagan Administration while the Begin Government is pressed for a report on its use of American-made cluster bombs in Lebanon, senior Administration officials said.

Ha... that reminds me of something interesting.  About four years ago, when that whole business kicked up in Lebanon, again, it just so happened to be my birthday, and we just so happened to be looking through the newspaper archives for stories that happened on our birthdays for this one class I had.  The front page of the New York Times for the day I was born talked about... the United States pulling out of Lebanon.

Only thing remotely notable about August 7, 1982 was that some Italian PM (Giovanni Spadolini) resigned from office.  Tongue

August 16, 1990: China tested a nuclear weapon of some kind... Saddam Hussein brought all the Americans and British people in Kuwait to Iraq... but nothing of much consequence besides my birth.

A train wreck in China killed over a hundred people. Also, some British soap opera actor was born.

You're either 230odd years old or have missed the point of the thread entirely, then. Smiley
