January 2011
Welcome to the Birthday Club’s first post of birthday shout-outs! Once a month will be a
forum announcement to celebrate the birthdays of our favorite Eden staff, reviewers, and
contributors! (And if you have yet to submit your own birthday, PM or email me now! It
is never too late and anyone can join in on the party!)
To make celebrating with our fellow Eden contributors more interesting and special,
every month has its own characteristics and history so I’ll be sharing a little of that each
time. It’s not going to be extensive information because that would take up entirely too
much space and leave me with nothing to do next year. But it does add a little spice to
every month of the year and, hey, you might learn a little something too!
So, for the first time ever…
Happy Birthday January Contributors!!!
2nd – Dusk
4th – Pandahb
6th – Liz2
15th – Jul!a
18th – SexxySarah
29th – Mistress Kay & KarleeCharm
Birth stone – Garnet
Zodiac Sign (Dec. 22nd – Jan. 19th) – Capricorn
Under the ruling planet of Saturn, the ‘goat-fish’ of the zodiac constellations is the
cardinal earth sign. You’re practical and ambitious but balanced with patience and
carefulness. Your main colors are indigo, grey, and dark green. If you’re at the tail end of
the month and don’t fall under this sign, no frets! We can’t do repeats for every month so
your sign will be next month with February. But also keep in mind, for anyone who has
even an inkling of interest in astrology, that the closer you are to another sign in birthday,
the more characteristics you share with them.
This month in history:
New Year’s Day is the most celebrated holiday around the world.
January 1, 1892 - Ellis Island in New York Harbor opened. Over 20 million new arrivals
to America were processed until its closing in 1954
January 3, 1924 - British Egyptologist Howard Carter found the sarcophagus of
Tutankhamen in the Valley of the Kings near Luxor after several years of searching.
January 4, 1809 - Louis Braille was born in France. Blinded as a boy, he later invented a
reading system for the blind using punch marks in paper.
Edit: Special Announcement!!!
Thanks to the hardwork of the EF Staff (thank you, Gary), you don’t have to wait for February 1st to get the special news and instead this post has been edited to include it. So
here it is, everyone!
Thanks to your involvement and the amazing generosity of the EdenFantasys Staff, every contributor who participates in the birthday club will receive a $25 gift card for their birthday month! So have you hugged your EF Staff lately? They sure know how to celebrate!
You January birthdays will be the first to receive this special birthday present. If your name is on this post, you got it! If you’re not involved in the birthday club, send me your
birthday as soon as you can. And once again, Happy Birthday!!!
