    That is pretty cool too, I have been jamming out to some of his Into the Wild soundtracks, No Ceiling and Society… awesome songs.  

    On a side note, I was told I had a likeness to Corey Feldman (inseparable to C Haim in the 80s) in my youth, and though I loved License to Drive and Lost Boys, I must admit I resented that comparison. C est la vie, que sera sera.  Emperor Akihito, whoa!

    all share my birthday of August 1.

    Decided to pick and choose from the long list.

    Also liked that on this date in 1834 – Slavery is abolished in the British Empire as the Slavery Abolition Act 1833 comes into force.
