26
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:09.840
The number one book was The Brethren by John Grisham.

27
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.000
The top movie was The Whole Nine Yards. A dentist

28
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.680
his life gets crazy when a gangster moves in next door,

29
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.759
starts Matthew Perry and Bruce Willis and a whole lot one.

30
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.719
All right, what happened on March the fifth? The Boston massacre? Yeah,

31
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:25.759
it took place. Now the American colonists, Yeah, honestly, they

32
00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:28.680
actually started it. The attentions were really high between the

33
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:31.360
British colonists and the British troops that were there. A

34
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:32.919
week and a half ago, a twelve year old boy

35
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:35.719
was killed by the British soldiers. Now a large crowd

36
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.039
had gathered on King Street and they started off taunting

37
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:41.080
the British soldiers. Then they started pelting them with snowballs

38
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:43.800
and rocks and sticks and stuff. Well, a British soldier

39
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:45.879
pushed one of the colonists back into the crowd. Well,

40
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.319
the crowd started beating on the British soldier. Saw the

41
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:51.560
Brits opened up bomb the crowd. Yeah, five colonists were

42
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.919
killed and six others were wounded. So Paul Revere, John Adams,

43
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:56.919
John Hancock, and that whole crew, Yeah, they really were

44
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:59.000
able to exploit that incident and gather a lot more

45
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:02.520
colonists who wanted to bell against the British authority. So yeah,

46
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:06.120
it really ramped up the case for American independence. Now,

47
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:08.479
this was probably a bigger invention than we give credit.

48
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:13.159
Tode eighteen sixty eight, SCHS Gould, he pattented the stapler. Yeah,

49
00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.159
I've got a convenient little device there. In nineteen thirty seven,

50
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:18.759
his design was actually redone. Yeah, they were kind of

51
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:20.879
switched to the kuys we used today. His kuin and

52
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.919
you really couldn't use on a desk. I wonder what

53
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:26.319
they were doing before this, so you can't. Fred Flintstone

54
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.800
a train train started running around eighteen oh four. Well today.

55
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.639
In eighteen seventy two, George Westerntowns Patten did the first

56
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:36.120
air brakes to stop drains. In nineteen thirty three, a

57
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:38.960
President Franklin Roosevelt, he signed an executive order. It called

58
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:41.520
for the confiscation of all privately owned gold in the

59
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:45.400
United States. It became a lie year later. Then President

60
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.400
forty finally overturned it in nineteen seventy four. So those

61
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:50.439
forty years gold, Yeah, it was a legal owned in

62
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:52.360
the United States. I mean, you could own some gold jewelry,

63
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:56.039
but that was about it. I wonder what this guy

64
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:59.199
did out there in Amarillo, Texas in ninety nineteen thirty four.

65
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.680
I guess he couldn't give gold. So Gene Howe, he

66
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:06.080
started National Mother in Law Day. All right, guys, don't panic,

67
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.000
don't worry, it's not today. They moved it to the

68
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:11.599
fourth Sunday. In October nineteen fifty three of the United

69
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:16.560
States found out that the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin had died. Wow. Well,

70
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.319
this Air Force staff sergeant he intercepted a top secret

71
00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:22.079
coded message that was sent by the Soviets. That staff

72
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:24.839
sergeant his name was Johnny Cash.

73
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:26.879
Hello, I'm Johnny Cash.

74
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.240
Yeah. That Johnny Cash started out as a morris Co

75
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.279
doing Morse code before he went into singing. Now Michael Goodwin.

76
00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:36.439
He was sentenced to death for raping and beating a

77
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:39.240
woman to death with an iron in South Carolina. His

78
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:41.720
death tense sentence. Dy I was overturned on a pil

79
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:43.959
so he ended up with life in prison. I mean

80
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.079
he didn't have to go to the electric chair. Then

81
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:48.279
in nineteen eighty nine, he was sitting naked on his

82
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:50.240
metal toilet in his cell. He was trying to fix

83
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:53.319
some air plugs that had been plugged into his TV set. Well,

84
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:55.240
they shored it out, killed him by electrocution.

85
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.399
