Happy B-day Michael.
So, I was born on 31st of October. One fun fact though:
2011 – The global population of humans reached seven billion. This day is now recognized by the United Nations as Seven Billion Day.

There's a long list about this day, for those who are interested:

@AD- February is a good month for b-days, but to be honest... all months are unique because of their events that they contain.

@Lucaci Andrew- wow... so you represent 7 billion people then? That is cool!

@LastMitch- well... I thought it was a good idea to mention births, deaths, and events... In other words people die everyday and people are born everyday, so might as well mention it. Also, I think i may need some more coffee ;)

@Dani- my dad shares the same b-day.

@JorgeM- thanks!
