You exaggerate, sir. That is not a 10-foot pole. I admit, however, that it's still pretty impressive for a man of your advanced years.
You didn't know I was Polish, did you? :biggrin:

You can't be, you don't know how to make pickled cucumbers and you don't pick mushrooms.

I think someone needs a tin-foil hat. Aside from the fact that plenty of people know my birthday...makes it hard for them to know which day to have the cake and how many candles to put on it if they don't...posting a #1 song isn't going to pinpoint a specific date. At most, you might narrow things down to a week if a song only stayed #1 for a week...that's about as frequently as anything gets updated. Considering I checked out several other people's birthdays at the same time, and some other dates of interest to me, as well as a year before and after my actual birthdate, I don't think anything I clicked around on that site could have pinpointed anything more than that I was clicking around various dates.

Some people believe our lives are profoundly influenced by whatever pop song was #1 on the day we were born.

Probably no one around this corner of the innerweb believes that :biggrin:.
