Lucy with four hungry children the rocks in I've had

00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:03.680
some sad times, split through some bad times, this time

24
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:11.879
the Herd. He picked a TV see. The number one

25
00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:14.960
book was The Little Drummer Girl by John Lucar. The

26
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:18.039
top movie was Returning the Jedi now Hans. He is

27
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.759
rescued from job of the Hut the Rebel Allions. They

28
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.800
have to destroy another death star Luke. He tries to

29
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.599
bring Darth Vader back from the dark side. It stars

30
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.719
over seventy actors who played Ewoks and Kenny Baker He's

31
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:31.120
the guy who played R two D two. Yeah, he

32
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:34.360
played an Ewok also all right that See it happened

33
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:38.159
on June the second, seventeen sixty three Pontiac's Rebellion again.

34
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:41.919
See today is mcinaw City, Michigan. Back then it was

35
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:46.319
Fort miche Leini Macinacic something like that. Anyway, the Brittish

36
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:48.319
troops they had gotten really used to watching the local

37
00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:51.360
chip Awas play lacrosse outside their fort. But today, as

38
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:53.639
the soldiers was hanging out watching the game. One of

39
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:56.840
the chick chip Awas actually chased the ball into the fort.

40
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:00.520
That was the signal got the Brits totally off guard.

41
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:04.759
The Chippewas attacked and captured the fort. See Native American

42
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.639
Indian Alliance had been formed by a Chief Pontiac. So

43
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:09.840
the same thing actually happened all up and down and

44
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:12.680
around the Great Lakes yep and all that area up there.

45
00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.080
Now it was a really bloody fight between them, especially

46
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:18.719
for the settlers. See the settlers in that area, they

47
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:21.360
were the enemy of the Indians. But the Brits didn't

48
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.680
care about him either. So after a couple of years,

49
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:27.080
the peace Street was agreed on. Absolutely nothing had changed.

50
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.800
Everything was the exact same as when Pontiac's rebellium began,

51
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:32.240
except there are a bunch of dead settlers, Indians and

52
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:36.800
British soldiers. In June second, eighteen fifty one, over in Maine,

53
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:42.439
in the first state to prohibit alcohol June second, eighteen

54
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.599
fifty five, the Portland, Maine Rum riots took place because

55
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:51.319
of that. Yeah, alcohol was now legal in Maine. Go

56
00:03:52.080 --> 00:04:07.400
into the chapel, Gone again to the chapel again. See

57
00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:09.439
these crazy kids, they didn't go to the chapel, they

58
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.360
went to the White House. Eighteen eighty six, forty nine

59
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.560
year old US President Grover Cleveland he married twenty one

60
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:18.160
year old Francis Folsom. Yep, it's the only time the

61
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.319
United States President has gotten married in the White House. Now, Francis,

62
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:24.399
she is the youngest first lady in US history. Don't

63
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:26.560
you kind of think she probably always will be at

64
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:28.839
twenty one years old? But any guessling on who the

65
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:33.000
second youngest US slave first lady is? Jackie Kennedy, John's wife.

66
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.800

golf on a Sunday. Nineteen twenty eight, vel Vedi cheese

69
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:44.639
went on sale. Now Kraft says, the reason you don't

70
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:46.680
have to refrigerate it until you open it up is

71
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.920
because it's not cheese. Yeah, it's processed cheese food. But

72
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:51.120
you know what, I like it, so I don't really

73
00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:53.639
want to know what's in it. Then, nineteen thirty two,

74
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:57.079
