Kids are supposed to say things like vegetables are my

13
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:02.119
favorite boo, I love cleaning my room. I didn't hit

14
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:04.840
my little brother. Adults you can play along with things

15
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:08.120

21
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.560
but you're lit now. I do have one question, though,

22
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:32.359

37
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.439
A former spy he goes on a campaign for vengeance,

39
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:51.800

00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:05.639

Emmy Award went to Shelley Dinsdale. Yeah, for Best TV Hosts.

48
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.599
She was a ventriloquist, all right. What happened on January

49
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:21.960
of the twenty fifth, eighteen nineteen, Former United States President

50
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:26.240
Thomas Jefferson helped form University of Virginia. You didn't know Jefferson.

51
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:28.360
He went to William and Mary. He was a frat boy.

52
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.280
Eighteen forty American Navy Captain Charles Wilkes. He was the

53
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:34.800
first to figure out that Antarctica was a continent and

54
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.960
not an island eighteen seventy eight. It was the first

55
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.159
time ever a torpedo was used to sink a ship.

56
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.159
A Russian Navy ship that used a torpedo to sink

57
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:45.639
a Turkish supply ship. It was anchored off the coast

58
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:48.560
of the country at Georgia. Now was during the Russia

59
00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:50.479
Turkish War. Now I know some of your things. What

60
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:52.879
about the US is only well that was during the

61
00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:55.319
Civil War. And yes, the Confederate submarine, the Hunting, it

62
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:57.960
did sink a Union ship off of South Carolina, but

63
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:00.639
the Hunting used a mine, not a torp that's why

64
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:03.879
the honey didn't get away. Nineteen twenty one, the word

65
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.000
robot was used for the first time. It was in

66
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:09.080
a Czechoslovakian play. Then you get try to announced that

67
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:12.199
now the play it was all about robots and they

68
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.360
were building robots, and then they all turned towards humid humanity.

69
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:17.959
So not only did they introduce the word robot, but

70
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:20.240
they also introduced the plot of every science fiction movie

71
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:24.000
after that. Nineteen twenty four, the first Winter Olympics opened

72
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.839
up was in Shamano, France. Not a lot of events,

73
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.519
bob sledding, cross country skiing, curling, figure skating, ice hockey,

74
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:35.639
ski jumping, speed skating. Now America's Charles Dutrio. He was

75
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:37.639
the first one to win an Olympic gold medal. He

76
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.319
went for the five hundred meters speed skating. After that,

77
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:43.319
Norway won every gold medal. Now every one of those

78
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:46.720
events was out held outside. Yeah, even figure skating. Nineteen

79
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:50.079
forty four in China, Florence Lee Timbawe she became the

80
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:53.399
first woman ordained as an Anglican priest Breton. They had

81
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:54.959
been in China a long time, so there were a

82
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.959
lot of Angelican Christians living there, and when Japan invaded

83
00:04:58.040 --> 00:04:59.959
China during World War two, China they started run out

84
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.839
men who could be priests. So Florence was up. But

85
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:04.560
then after the war they told us she could keep

86
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:06.759
the title ast Priests, but she couldn't you know, practice

87
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:09.600
as a priest anymore. Well until nineteen seventy one. Yeah,

88
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:13.680
they restored all her priestly authority. Grand's Rabid, Michigan in

89
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:16.319
nineteen forty five became the first city in the United

90
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:19.360
States but fluoride in their drinking water. Yeah, the residents

91
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:22.480
of Grand Rapids, they had a reputations being the worst

92
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:25.240
teeth in America. So a couple of years after they

93
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.680
put floor ide in and they did a survey sixty

94
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:29.800
to sixty five percent reduction in tooth, the ka and

95
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:33.600
the children. So floride was put in water nationwide. You're

96
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:36.439
wandering today. Seventy two percent of all American drinking water

97
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:40.399
has fluoride in it. Nineteen sixty four, in Oregan, Blue

98
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.680
Ribbon Sports was formed. They made running shoes, changed their

99
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.959
name to Nike in nineteen seventy one. Nike. She is

100
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:49.560
the Greek goddess of victory. She fought with Zeus in

101
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:52.519
his battle against the Titans. Now, I don't know if

102
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.519
the word gross fits there or maybe creepy. It just

103
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:59.360
doesn't sound right. Nineteen seventy four, doctor Christian Barnard. He

104
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:02.879
performed the fir hetero topic cart transplant. See what he

105
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:05.079
did is he put the donor heart inside the chest,

106
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:07.399
but he didn't remove the old heart. So yeah, the

107
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.120
guy had two hearts in his chest. Like I said, creepy.

108
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:13.519
All right, let's go back to robots. Nineteen seventy nine

109
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:15.959
Robert Williams. He became the first human ever killed by

110
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:18.399
a robot. He was working at the Ford Motor Plant

111
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:21.680
in Michigan on a one time mechanical arm took him out.

112
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:24.240
I'm guessing it was a malfunction and not that he

113
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:26.720
pissed off the romot, but nobody knows for sure. So

114
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:29.000
to beat it was an opposite to day.

115
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:36.600
