Fish and Logs

Today is Log Cabin Day  and National Catfish Day. Honestly, I have nothing to day about these celebrations.

Historically Speaking…
2009- Michael Jackson died. I think we have heard enough. If you haven’t tune to any number of TV or streaming websites.
1950- North Koreans invade South Korea beginning the The Korean War.
1910- Congress passed the Mann Act. This will aid law enforcement in fighting ‘white slavery’. At times, some men (including Charlie Chaplin and Chuck Berry) were arrested using the Mann Act when they crossed state lines with unmarried “companions”.
1876- The Souix and Cheyenne Indians caught Lt Col George Custer and his 7th Cavalry off guard and slaughtered them at the Battle of Little Big Horn.

Who was born today in…
1975- Linda Cardellini, actress seen in er. She also played Velma in the live action/’animated’ Scooby Doo movies.
1963- Wham! Singer, George Michael.
1948- Jimmie Walker. You will know him better by the nickname, JJ and from the program Good Times, well, you will if you are old like me or watch TV Land.
1945- She thinks You’re So Vain, Carly Simon.
1925- One of the best out of this world mom’s, June Lockhart, you know, from Lost in Space.
1903- 1984 and Animal Farm author, George Orwell.
1874- Rose O’Neill. You are kidding…You have never heard of her? Okay, but you do know of her…She created Kewpie Dolls.

I will do my best to review this comment and add it as soon as possible. Sorry, but if it is mean, crude, disgusting or irrelevant I can't post it. Remember we are supposed to be celebrating not dragging people down.
