"At high school in Arnhem, I was extremely poor at arithmetic and algebra because I had, and still have, great difficulty with the abstractions of numbers and letters. When, later, in stereometry [solid geometry], an appeal was made to my imagination, it went a bit better, but in school I never excelled in that subject. But our path through life can take strange turns."
MC Escher, born on June 17, 1898; Dutch artist renowned for his geometric art

I do so love Escher's work. Happy Birthday to him, happy birthday to him, happy birthday bizarre artist guy, happy birthday to him...

I've always thought it was kinda oddly interesting that people celebrate the birthdays of the dead.
