May 29, 1953.
So, what were YOU doing when you heard the news?
Uh, I wasn’t doing anything . . .
I just wanted to brag that I have an autographed copy of Sir Edmund Hillary: An Extraordinary Life. In fact, I looked at it this morning while I was searching for something more important.
Ed Hillary has always been a quality guy.
That’s before my mother was born! But yay those climbers. 
I knew that she dodged sniper fire in Bosnia in 1996, but climbed Everest?
What a woman. I wasn’t even born then . . .
NO WAY!
I think Bcup and I share a birthday.
Buttercup, did your mother have you in her early to mid teens?

Late teens. I’m a Libra.
Edit Don’t go off topic!
OK. Guess I was wrong about the shared birthday. I’m Capricorn, and you’ve got scales.
Topic . . . right . . . shared birthdays are kind of like the shared spotlight under which Ed and Tensing reached the top of the frosty white cake together.
