Dear Yahoo!: What is the most common birthday? David

Denver, Colorado Dear David: We found several references to this question on the Web, all pointing to the same source: a survey of 12,576 Americans conducted by Anybirthday.com. Answers like this one from the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star cite the study's finding of October 5 as the date the most people (in the U.S., anyway) are born. The 2001 report claims approximately 968,000 living Americans entered the world on that date. (The original web page announcing these results is no longer online, but we oh-so-cleverly queried the Internet Archive Wayback Machine and found it.)

 

So why October 5? Just a random date? Perhaps, but Anybirthday has a theory: To be born on this date, a baby would most likely have been conceived on New Year's Eve.

 

The survey also found May 22 to be the least common birthday. As yet, no guesses as to what it is that happens in late August (nine months prior to that date) that routinely turns so many people off. Perhaps it's just too darn hot?

Mreye: I take you new sig to mean that you are signing up to run the Indy mini-marathon this year? Good luck bro!

You know what? If I get a white cat at some point, I'm going to name it Snopek. I like that,

I hate having to front up for work the morning after I've gotten absolutely hammered the night before.

I'll be interning w/ the kane county cougars over the summer

was it a female cop and were you filming an adult movie?

Last night, I went to a gas station to fill up and inside was the hottest female cop I have ever seen. She had a pretty face, black hair in a ponytail and the tight uniform showed off her body. And no, this wasn't a porno...unfortunatley.

That's awesome. Congrats. I had a cool internship as well and it always helps when you get into the place you want.

I agreed to watch my brother's dog, who doesn't exactly get along with my dog, this weekend. (We never do Thanksgiving in my family until Sunday because multiple members of the fam work in industries that don't care that a Thursday in November is a holiday, but they can always request the Sunday after it off.)

 

He's off hunting. I don't do hunting.

 

So I've spent the past 5 hours trying to keep two dogs from killing each other. I didn't even remember that tonight is the best bar night of the year. I can't believe I'm giving up getting laid for this.

 

He owes me one hell of a Christmas gift.

What kind of dogs?

A beagle (mine)

 

and a Boxer-Foxhound mix (his)

I just finished decorating the outside of my house for Christmas. Everything was fine until I got to the last strand of lights, and then a fuse blew. Now I have to re-wire everything. Humbug.

I thought you would have a non-f***ing roommate. BTW, how do you know what a pregnant walrus snores like?

ZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing?

Stinky III is dying. This sucks. Since Brian called me to tell me that he (Stinky) is doing worse. I know he must be as Brian is the eternal optomist. If he really is dying, I just hope it is quick and painless. He is going is a similar way that Fuzzy I went - just winding down. He doesn't seem to be any pain, just has absolutely no energy - he sleeps most of the day and just wakes up for a treat and water.

It should be interesting.

Does anyone mask their ip addy. I'd really like to this. I mean, all those creeps with those sigs that know what browser I'm running!
