I know, it has an air about it of urban legend ... or I guess in this case, rural legend.

Huhn. I'd bet the reference is to Jack. These "fun facts" things are so superficial I'd bet my Saturday night drinkin' money that whoever put these facts together on Annie Proulx probably never even read the story. >:(

According to my book The Secret Language of Birthdays which friend Adrian the horsewrangler gave me, August 22 is the Day of Seasoned Experience. "Those born on August 22, no matter how far they pursue imaginative, fanciful and creative pursuits, never lose track of the experience which they have culled from the most common of tasks and daily activities. . . Those born on this day despise pretension and pity those who bring themselves or others into jeopardy through hubris or overconfidence. Building on a secure knowledge of the world and how it works, August 22 people proceed logically whether they remain on the physicall plane or deal in abstract concepts and sophisticated knowledge.
It sounds like her!!
