I might drive off the whole nas crown.

34
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:41.960
My mind. The top selling book was eighteen seventy six

35
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.080
back Gordy vow Now. The top movie was The Bad

36
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.400
News Bears. I've broken from her minor league baseball manager.

37
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:51.360
Here's a coach, a team of outcasts stars Walter matth

38
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:54.280
Allen Tatum O'Neill. All right, let's see it happened on

39
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:57.919
April fifteenth. In seventeen seventy if you were writing with

40
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.759
a lead pencil, yeah, you'd have chunks of bread next year.

41
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.080
See bread was used as an eraser for the pencil

42
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:06.560
list Joseph Priestley, though he invented the rubber eraser. Yeah,

43
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.599
he did it by accident, but hey, it worked at

44
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:10.520
that time over in England. Anything that he had to

45
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:12.879
rub something on, they called it a rubber. So, yeah,

46
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.400
the rubber eraser didn't have any rubber in it. It

47
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:17.400
took him until eighteen fifty eight before they put that

48
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:18.560
rubber on the end of a pencil.

49
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:18.759
Though.

50
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.080
Eighteen sixty five, nine hours after being shot in the

51
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:25.319
head by John wilkeswith President Abraham Lincoln, he died fifty

52
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:28.680
six years old. Eighteen seventy seven, the world's first home

53
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.039
telephone was installed. It was in Charles Williams Junior's crib

54
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.599
in Summerville, Massachusetts. See Williams. He was the guy who

55
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.280
they were going to pay to make the first telephones.

56
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.680
So Alexander Bell and his assistant Watson. Yeah, they put

57
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:44.240
a line from his shop into his house. You need

58
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.759
to use Ivory soap. Well today, Harvey Proctor, he started

59
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:51.319
selling that soap in making it in eighteen seventy eight. Now,

60
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.000

65
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:08.319

Roy he started Victoria's Secrets. Yeah, the lingerie company opened

113
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.519
up a store out there in California. Then he started

114
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.040
the sale order catalog. So he didn't like going into

115
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:44.120
a lingerie stores, so I don't know why he opened

116
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:45.920
one up, but he did. Anyway, he figured out that

117
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:47.399
other guys didn't want to go in there either, So

118
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:50.120
that was a really good call, that catalog. Yeah, he

119
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:51.160
did pretty darn good.

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:52.199
