Born today, you are able to see the world in terms of black and white, regardless of any shades of gray that might confuse, confound or stymie those around you. As far as you are concerned, there is "good" and "bad" and "right" and "wrong" -- and everything falls into one of these basic, inviolate categories. While this outlook works very well for you, there are those who would accuse you of living in a fantasy world of your own making -- but the truth is that while you see things in the simplest and most straightforward of terms, you never insist that others do the same, and, in fact, you expect them to do quite the opposite more often than not.
Despite having high principles, you are perfectly happy with your feet on the ground, dealing with people in a down-to-earth manner.
Also born on this date are: Frank Sinatra, singer and actor; Bob Barker, game show host; Jennifer Connelly, actress; Bill Nighy, actor; Connie Francis, singer; Cathy Rigby, gymnast and actress; Edvard Munch, painter.
