For my birthday:

3 events:
394 - Battle of the Frigidus: The Christian Roman Emperor Theodosius I defeats and kills the pagan usurper Eugenius and his Frankish magister militum Arbogast.
1870 - Louisa Ann Swain of Laramie, Wyoming becomes the first woman in the United States to cast a vote legally after 1807.
1995 - Cal Ripken Jr. breaks Lou Gehrig 's record of 2,130 consecutive Major League Baseball games played at Camden Yards in Baltimore,Maryland.

2 births:
1757 - Marquis de Lafayette, French soldier and statesman (d. 1834)
1860 - Jane Addams, American social worker, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize (d. 1935)

1 death:
1998 - Akira Kurosawa, Japanese film director (b. 1910)

So, true baseball (or women's sufferage or Arbogast) fans should be able to tell me my birthday now. No googling!
