PERSONAL STATISTICS

My name is Dan and I was born July 22, 1989. The moon phase on the night I was born was called "last quarter". The name Daniel comes from the Hebrew word meaning, "God is my judge". It also means "A man of strength and purpose with great determination. He will not start what he can not finish. Always gives 100%." My real name is Daniel, but everyone calls me Dan.

SHARED BIRTHDAYS

Some famous people I share a birthday with are: Ramond Chandler, who wrote mysteries, Bob Dole, who ran for President of the United States, Irene Bedard, who was the voice of "Pocahontas" and Danny Glover the actor.

EVENTS OCCURRING ON MY BIRTHDAY

Historical Events. In 1994 on my birthday O.J. Simpson pleaded for his innocence of the slaying of his ex- wife and her friend. Another thing that happened in 1989 was a man named John Dillinger was suspected as a bank robber was shot to death in front of a bank in Chicago. A lot of violent things happened on my birthday. I don't know why.

NOSTALGIA

In the year I was born the U.S.A. President was George Bush. A stamp was worth 31 cents, so a letter cost 31 cents to send

Favorite Toys. My favorite toy when I was little was a teddy bear. I had 3 teddy bears. Two big and one small. The small one was a grizzly bear and one of the big ones was a panda and the other was a polar bear. I got the polar bear before I was born. I also had a blanket that I was wrapped in all the time.

SUMMARY / EVALUATION

I enjoyed this project a lot and I liked researching on the Internet. I didn't find it very hard and that is what I liked most about it. The most interesting thing I learned while doing this project was that I share a birthday with Danny Glover.
