Got this one from my Mom. Kinda strange but interesting:

Put your date of birth without year into Wikipedia and pick 3 events, 2 births and 1 death which happened on that day

Events:
1279 BC - Ramesses II becomes Pharaoh of Egypt.
1884 - John Harvey Kellogg patents corn flakes.
1927 - The last Ford Model T rolls off the assembly line after a production run of 15,007,003 vehicles.

Births:
1048 - Omar Khayyám, Persian poet, astronomer, mathematician, and philosopher (d. 1131)
1640 - Michał Wiśniowiecki, King of Poland (d. 1673)

Deaths:
