This day in History - Donovan - 08-03-2012
8/02/1934: Hitler becomes Fuhrer, and millions of future internet arguments are resolved before they start.
(edit, shit I just realized it's the third today. Damn vacation mindset)

Hitlers nephew petitioned F.D.R. to go over and fight against his uncle. He was not allowed to go.

And a couple of decades later on this day in 1958:
The U.S. nuclear submarine Nautilus accomplishes the first undersea voyage to the geographic North Pole. The world's first nuclear submarine, the Nautilus dived at Point Barrow, Alaska, and traveled nearly 1,000 miles under the Arctic ice cap to reach the top of the world. It then steamed on to Iceland, pioneering a new and shorter route from the Pacific to the Atlantic and Europe.

On this day, 2011, I decided to stop using milk in my coffee and switched instead to cream.

8/3/1492
In 1492,
Columbus sailed the oceans blue
He had three ships to join the fun
loaded down with men and guns
He wanted a route to West Indies ASAP,
but couldn't read a fucking map
It was a scurvy, stinky band
that finally reached Bahamas land
And when they met some native dudes
His fortunes were made and theirs were screwed.
He called 'em injuns and that name stuck
Columbus: what a stupid fuck.

You know what? Upon further reflection, it was actually 10th I made that transition from milk to cream.
I'll update this thread next Friday.

I think my head just fell off.

I guess nobody remembered that today in 1895 Neva Morris, Iowa's oldest person, was born.
Assholes.

Assholes.
I remembered, but LC usually opens up the birthday threads. I've just been waiting...
RE: This day in History - Riotgear - 08-03-2012
Well I knew you did. I was talking about everyone else.
RE: This day in History - HairOfTheDog - 08-03-2012
I'm surprised nobody beat me to this one:
On this day in 1974 - Guitarist Jeff Baxter quits Steely Dan and joins Doobie Brothers
That musta been a bittersweet day for stoner music fans... Torn.
RE: This day in History - Riotgear - 08-03-2012
Steely Dan stomps the DB's IMO. Not really my kind of music, but if it was there it is.
RE: This day in History - OnBendedKnee - 08-03-2012
TRIVIA:
Where did Steely Dan get his band name (and yes, it is the entire band's name, not his)?
RE: This day in History - Riotgear - 08-03-2012
I know. Can we make Sally google it again?
RE: This day in History - OnBendedKnee - 08-03-2012
Fool her once, shame on me... fool her twice. . .
RE: This day in History - Riotgear - 08-03-2012
Fool her twice then hang out and wait for a third time?
RE: This day in History - OnBendedKnee - 08-03-2012
Is Sally Ramsey?
(NOT rhetorical.)

Aussie Ramsally.
