George Takei, Adolf Hitler, and Me

So I turned 35 today. For some reason, today just doesn't feel like a birthday. I don't really have a problem with my age. No one thinks I'm this old, anyway. ^_^

I've always really liked the date of my birth because it's an interesting day. Adolf Hitler was born on this day in 1889. Not that this is someone I like or respect in ANY WAY, but no one can argue that he left an indelible mark on the history of the world. Kotaku has a post today about game where you can kill him:

Celebrate Hitler's Birthday By Killing Him In These Games

I was amused. =) It's interesting to read the comments, though. I often get the impression that people are trying to erase his existence in a way instead of remembering what he did so that we don't ever do the same thing in the future.

But enough serious crap...

Today in 1937, George Takei, famous for being Sulu in the original Star Trek series, was born. I love the original series. It's absolutely my favorite. Oooh...that reminds me. The bluray for season one comes out next week! Need money...lol.
