41
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:33.639
July the thirteenth, fifteen sixty eight in London, England? Alexander

00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:35.960
Noel he perfected how to bottle beer.

43
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:40.879
Now, don't go that boy, Alexander.

44
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.680
He was an Angelica priest, but he really loved the fish,

45
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:45.000
so he game up with bottle of bear so he

46
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:47.080
could take him vision with him. Then, of course he

47
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:49.639
always gave him to the poor, the fish, not the beer.

48
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:53.319
Eighteen thirty two, Henry Schoolcraft. He discovered the source of

49
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:54.439
the Mississippi River.

50
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:55.319
It is lake.

51
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:58.800
It'saka in north central Minnesota. This will win you a bet.

52
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.800
The Mississippi River isn't the longest river in the United States.

53
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.400
Now one of his tributaries is the Missouri River. Yeah,

54
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.439
it's one hundred miles longer. Eighteen sixty five, the owner

55
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.479
of the New York Tribune newspaper, Horace Greeley. Yeah, they

56
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:13.599
printed his famous advice, go west, young man, go west.

57
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:14.159
Yeah.

58
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.120
After the Civil War back East was pretty much a

59
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:18.879
crap all, so ye give the people advice to get

60
00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:19.599
the hell out of there.

61
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:21.879
At the Crystal Palace.

62
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.639
In London in eighteen seventy one, they held the world's

63
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.560
first championship cat show. I wonder they got them there.

64
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:30.240
Cat carriers weren't invented until the nineteen sixties. Nineteen twenty three,

65
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:33.599
it was a busy day out in the Gobi Desert, Mongolia.

66
00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:36.759
America's Roy Andrews found the first dinosaur eggs. Well, now

67
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:38.639
people knew what they were looking for. They found them

68
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:41.120
all over the world. I mean people probably found him earlier,

69
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.159
but they just thought they were rocks. But Meanwhile, out

70
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.199
in California, they officially dedicated the Hollywood sign. Yeah, the

71
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.000
hills above Los Angeles. See then though it said Hollywood Land. Yeah,

72
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.520
all it was was just a big advertisement for the

73
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:56.120
Hollywood housing development. In nineteen forty nine they dropped the land,

74
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.039
so just says Hollywood. There were some more state records

75
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:02.240
set today. In eighteen thirty six, Neo Michigan hit one

76
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.560
hundred and twelve and in Wisconsin, Del's Wisconsin May one

77
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:09.120
hundred and fourteen. Still state records. Nineteen fifty five, Ruth

78
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.400
Ellis she got the honor of being the last woman

79
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.319
executed in Britain. Now she had been a nightclub hostess,

80
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.959
and she was hung for fatally shooting her lover, David Blakeley.

81
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.680
Now David Blakey was a really famous race car driver.

82
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.319
Rose. She was twenty eight. Hey, let's talk some football

83
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:24.160
in the NFL.

84
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.319
In nineteen seventy two, the Los Angeles Rams and the

85
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:27.800
Baltimore Coast and made a trade.

86
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:30.560
They traded owners. That's right, er say.

87
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.360
He was now the owner of the Colts and Rosen

88
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:35.000
Bloom was now the owner of the Rams. Nineteen eighty five,

89
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:37.480
the live Aid concerts were held, one was in London

90
00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:40.040
and one was Philadelphia. Pretty much everyone with a record

91
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.560
deal performed at one of those two concerts. Raised seventy

92
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.279
million bucks. Yeah, I know it wasn't a lot, but

93
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:47.360
everybody felt good about doing that, even though it didn't

94
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.079
help too much. It was just last year in Butler, Pennsylvania,

95
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:52.879
when Donald Trump survived in Assassin Nation attempt. Thomas Cook

96
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:55.000

97
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.439
in the air, one of them Hill killed the spectator

98
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.240
and two people were critically into secret service. Niper killed Crook.

99
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:03.319
