Jules Gotay was born. He was born 3 days after his birthday, which makes him 3 days younger than himself. From then on he spent most of his time breathing.

After a young childhood he attended college where he was unceremoniously kicked off the girl's hockey team for his subversive views (only two of which were actually illegal).

He then did art.

To earn his eat he learned to play the typewriter and went to work for a buttonhole factory (where they not only made buttonholes, but all kinds of holes).

In 1945 he was born one more time (just for the heck of it). In 1947 he lost his French accent in a terrible car accident, consequently all of his later paintings are in english (until he found his french accent under the sofa).

By 1955 he was so famous that no one had ever heard of him. In fact, he never even heard of himself. Then in 1961 he was born 3 more times (he had nothing better to do).
