Today we celebrate the birthday of our national hero, Jose Rizal (José Protacio Mercado Rizal Alonso y Realonda). It was therefore with great pride as a Filipino to see that this Great Malayan was the featured birthday celebrant over at the Free Dictionary considering that so many other prominent personalities were also born on this day such as James I of England, the great mathematician Blaise Pascal, Wallis Simpson the Duchess of Windsor, Lou Gehrig, Guy Lombardo, Nobel Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, writer Salman Rushdie ... and ooh, look! the young British actor Hugh Dancy.
