If you had asked my mother, she would have told you that I was born on August 8th. I wasn't, but she got it wrong for most of my life. She explained it this way -
When she learned she was pregnant, she was given a due date of August 8th.
She went into labor on the 8th.
She checked into the hospital on the 8th.
Her water broke on the 8th.
So, if I didn't arrive until the 9th, it wasn't her fault.
