 A “January 3, ... ,__, July 3 (x2), August 3(x2), September 3, __,...December 3/ 3rd Day, Month Sequence “ pattern cluster.  And note the much larger gap in the cluster re February 3– June 3 (5 months).  And now continuing on with my previous post, see below, info (especially the additions to the 3rd day cluster) regarding all the notable persons found on the Wikipedia pages of Kate Smith, Marvel Marilyn Maxwell and Silver Bells (song).  Some stand out more than others, take for instance the only one who is an addition to the recent “Michael” pattern cluster: 

• Sir Michael Terence Wogan (3 August 1938 – 31 January 2016) 

His birthday is another addition to the above cluster.  Another name that stood out is one found on Kate Smith’s wiki page:  

Henry Morgan (March 31, 1915 – May 19, 1994)

A name doppelgänger — not the privateer Henry Morgan... on the rum bottle.  Interestingly enough, I only buy rum once a year for Christmas nog... just before this post, so an addition to the “timely” pattern cluster.  His surname is also an addition to the “Remove a Letter Makes a Word” pattern cluster, hence making “organ”.  Note the following excerpt from his wiki page: 

 Morgan was briefly blacklisted after his name appeared in the infamous anti-communist pamphlet Red Channels. 

One name on his wiki page stood out:  

• Alan Jay Lerner (August 31, 1918 – June 14, 1986)  

I investigated him because his surname is another addition to the “Add a Letter Makes a Word” pattern cluster, hence making “learner”... that jives with the recent “listener” (from the surname “Lister” re: actor Tommy D. "Tiny" Lister Jr. (June 24, 1958 – December 10, 2020) who also passed away just recently!!  And note Lerners birth and death dates... Hmmm, Megan Macgregor’s Birthday is also August 31, and Donald Trump’s birthday is June 14!! Others on Morgan’s wiki page who stood out:  

• Lindley Armstrong Jones (December 14, 1911 – May 1, 1965) as Spike Jones
• William Porter (September 11, 1862 – June 5, 1910) pen name O. Henry 

There is one other person in the lists below who stands out: 

• Rock Hudson (November 17, 1925 – October 2, 1985) 

He stood out because his name came up in conversation on Sunday when two friends (gay guys) came to visit.  I won’t go into detail at this time.  His birthday is an addition to a cluster in my previous post: 

“January 17, February 17, __, April 17, May 17, June 17,..., October 17(x2), November 17, __/ 17th Day, Month Sequence” pattern cluster.
