According to Wikipedia I share my birthday with Kate Bush, Jean Reno, Richard Linklater and Emily Bronte. Also with Arnie and the drummer from the Manics but let's leave those two for a moment. Joe Shuster, the artist who helped create Superman died on 30th July 1992. Other birthdeaths include Otto Von Bismarck, Claudette Colbert, Ingmar Bergman and potentially Jimmy Hoffa who disappeared on the day, 1975.I'm the same age as Christopher Nolan, the director of Memento and Batman Begins. I wonder if he enjoyed the day as much as I did.
