I do not know if anyone else has already blogged on this, but I find the fact that both Hitler and Napoleon's birthday are today, April 20, kind of disturbing. Hitler was the greatest ruler of the twentieth century, and by greatest I do not mean best, but I am instead referring to the amount of power he had. Napoleon was the greatest leader of the nineteenth century. Is it a coincidence that both of these rulers who believed in expansionism to an abusrd degree share the same birthday?
I am not usually one to believe in the supernatural or even "signs." But it does disturb me how alike both of these leaders were in many ways and that they also share the same birthday. How is this possible? It makes me wonder if the next great world leader's birthday will be on April 20. If that were to happen, all of this would not be a coincidence. Twice is a coincidence, threee times is just plain scary (And for any of you smart alecs out there, neither Bush's were born in April. Both were born in the summer months, nice try. However Saddam Hussein was born in April. April 28 to be exact...).

Haha, so what're you suggesting?
That Napoleon and Hitler shared the same soul?
Or that people born in April are inclined to megalomania?
I dont know,I really dont. Maybe they share the same evil spirit perhaps? And the whole point is that I found it disturbing.
oooh creepy.
today is also marijuana day.
and the anniversary of columbine
Mere coincidence.
haha my bday is on April 20th.
So are you a megalomaniac? You're not planning a hostile take-over of the world any time soon, are you?
Me too :)
Napoleon's birthday is August 15th.
haha, that's true. I just looked it up on wikipedia right now. Wow, that just killed the whole thing.
Thank you, anonymous stranger.
lol I actually find that really funny, because to be honest with you, I never looked it up. My French teacher was making a big deal about it, and thats where I got it from. LOL!
Wow...if that were true that would certainly be interesting. Too bad it isn't, actually.
I consider FDR the greatest leader of the 20th century.
I would have to disagree. Even thought he was a good guy, Hitler had a lot more power.
Your teacher was partially correct. It was Napoleon's nephew that was born on 20 April, 1808. Napoleon III was ruler of France during the Franco-Prsussian War in 1870 and got his butt kicked by the Germans. So, it was a Napoleon that was born on that date, but not the first Napoleon.
Ah, the plot thickens.... dun dun DUN!

Sarcasm - Less violent than a slap in the face.
No, not really.
If you want to be disturbed, you should also consider what 4/20 also stands for.
Pot smoking day? Columbine . . . is there something else I should know about.
Its TRUE My uncle's a MEGLOMANIAC and He was born on April 20th.
LOL
