OK, you're telling me that historically my birthday has included plundering, probing and the Marquis de Sade? You're so right, Mary - I was indeed born to be a pornographer! ;P (and the baseball factoid is just the icing on the cake!) I think I might have the coolest birthday ever!

And thank you SO MUCH, Mary! You are fabulous, and I'm so glad that we met on this magical thing called LJ. Really and truly. *hugs*
