Its getting pretty stale at the DF, with TOO many threads discussing the same old stuff and fighting over the same issues a bazillion times :) ...too many folks gatecrashing in a flash of inspiration and bringing in threads that take 3,4 posts...so here's a little eulogy to all those blessed faithfuls who still keep the forum going :-)) and a hope that this DF goes from strength to strength in the days to come :)

  Thanks, Saravanan, for the DoB's of TKR and MSV, the two giants of TFM. Do you also know those of KVM, Shankar, Ganesh, TR, GKV, and VK? :-)
  
  A crude number crunching (jumping down from 1955, a year of exalted Jupiter, in steps of 12 years!) leads me to believe both MSV and IR would have exalted Jupiter, although I have to check a chart generator, since I don't know how to calculate myself!

  Prabhu: I believe July 9 (MSV) is also OJ's B'day!
  From memory, Venkatapathy Raju and the current Sri Lankan skipper (not Jayasuriya; I forget names easily), also have B'day's on July 9th.

  Prabhu, I only possess a smattering of the astro stuff :-)

  Prabhu, I believe that May 19th (TKR) is also Ariyakudi Ramanujam Iyengar's B'day (I may be wrong big time on this though).

  A fun thread, a waft of fresh breeze in this scorching summer. Prabhu, good one! Though, all these stats are giving me a complex, being given to forget even my daughters' birthday.
  
  And to my friend who remembered me, I can only say I'm flattered...

  "Arrogant" -Thats because of the Aussie names !
  
  I am a capricorn born on 16th Jan.I did an exclusive surfing and found out that the only other celebrity (apart from hehehe ofcourse!) born on the same date was Nani Palkhivala.
  
  No!..No!..I don t believe that his premature death is certainly not due to this fact coming to light!
  
  With an age difference of 2463 ,sharing the B'day with Thiruvalluvar( I school i read that he was born 2500 years ago!) it s not bad company!

  aha.. u sound like the new employee in the museum whose job was to show ppl around and tell them what each specimen was.
  
  He showed a dinosaur and said "This is the skeleton of a dinosaur that lived on this earth before 150 million years 1 month and 4 days". He had been told by the curator when he joined a month ago that the dinosaur was 150 million yrs old.

  Magix, Very Very Special Laxman is Nov. 1 (along with Aishwarya Rai). Kamal is Nov. 7 (Sir C.V. Raman too?).
  
  OISG, Bhanupriya and that Canadian-French tennis player (she won the French open, I believe) are both January 15th born. MGR is Jan. 17.
  
  Prabhu, Lata Mangeshkar is September 28th born. Dev Anand is September 26th born, as is Serena Williams. English wicket keeper Stewart is probably April 7th born. Ajay Devgan may also be that same day. Jackie Chan is also probably the same day.

  M4Ever, you are really unusual :) From where do you get bdays of tennis stars?
  
  Vel, Poochandy may be unusual but he bonds well with other MD fans!
  I dont know anything about signs but if you can mention any special event on ur bday, then I can hazard a guess. Or I'll cheat by 'google-ing' for your resume :)

  Prabhu, I don't know where I got the B'days of tennis stars -- probably reading the tennis magazine here and there and storing in memory the B'day information. :-)
  
  I think Bjorn Borg and GNB (karnatic musician) share the same B'day, June 6th. Pistol Pete and Abhishek Bachan, August 12th.

  Jan 26: Kim Hughes, Ashok Malhotra, Shivlal Yadav, as far as I know.
  
  August 15: I can't recall any at this time -- May be Sandip Patil.
  
  December 25: Newton, and probably Nagma.
  
  
• From: Music4ever (@ 130.111.58.78) on: Thu May 29 11:37:40 EDT 2003

  Music4Ever: ahhh, TENNIS mag? I thought as much!! Now let me bet that you were a reader of INDIAN CRICKET annual to get cricket stats? or is it Wisden? :) When I was a kid, a guy convinced told me that since Borg was born on 6/6/56, he won those titles coz of the evil 666 factor! That forever scared me off numero/astrology.(Asif Iqbal too is 6/6)
  
  Vel, since you are pronounced 'Whale', are u Pisces? ;-)
  
  C~P,
  Warring IR-ARR fans
  Used up all the ambulance vans
  For a week I'm dying of patni
  Help! Send me idlis n chutney.
  Come back from your kARR Seva
  Coz Magix's now a fan of Deva!

  Prabhu, I just glance through Tennis magazine when I get a chance, which is about once in three or four months :-) About cricket, I have not read Indian Cricket annual or Wisden till now. In fact I have never even seen any of them. It is just that I like to remember B'days and store (not in computer files and all that!) whenever I get a chance. Yes, Asif Iqbal also is June 6, now I remember. Do you know the pride and joy of India is April 24? Which other cricketers were born on that same day?

  John Wright
  That's right
  the guy scared of cockroach
  more famous for being our coach!! 5th July
  
  Stroked through the off
  Leaving bowlers to cough
  He's never captained a match coolly
  Our very own Ganguly! 8 july
  
  With a turban on his head
  filling batsmen w/ dread
  Enjoys chocolate fudge, he
  is our whirlwind Bhajji! 3 july
  
  Why am i mentioning all these
  Without even asking for my fees
  U were talkin about 6th of june
  Thinking of 6/7 i'm settin my tune!
  
  I'm being totally honest, not a myth
  This is the worst poem i've come up with!
  I'm a bit afraid though
  That u'll all shout DESPARADO!

  He's called Captain cool
  as the youngest skipper into the international scene he burst
  But I wonder if he's called a fool
  Coz the kiwi skipper Fleming was born on April first!

  Magix/Prabhu,
  
  Me a goat,[capricorn (Dec 25) by sun sign]...my ascendent sign is aquarius, moon sign is virgo - kanni rasi ;-) [while workaholic parts of me (capri & virgo) pin me down to my work, the free spirit of aquarius makes me roam such forums for fresh air...pretty odd cosmic mix, my signs, aint it?
  
  Prabhu, do i look or act anything like a pisces?!?!? [ahem, any pisces gals roaming in here?]
  
  Suresh, so u r a leo..i sort of guessed that myself already :-)

  Music4ever, after the vetti performances of indian cricket in late 90s, i stopped digging cricket and instead went into tfm. By late 90s, the 80s tennis stars had moved out too.
  
  http://www.tenniscorner.net is a great site with all the tennis info on tournaments, its the equivalent of cricinfo which gives even Ranji scorecards.
  Wadekar also Apr 1.
  Great going magix :)
