One of the cod one mast and.

30
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:05.920
One of the Kind.

00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:12.039
The number one book was pet Cemetery by Stephen King.

32
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:15.960
Top movie was Emonyville three D. A journalist moves into

33
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.280
the Amiteville murder House that's also haunted. Yeah, I didn't

34
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:21.360
have a good time, but it wasn't. Three D star

35
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:25.159
as Tony Roberts, Tess Harper, and Robert Joy. Nineteen ninety,

36
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:28.000
the pop duo Milli Vanilli had their Grammy Awards taken

37
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:30.800
away from him. Yeah, the Grammy's ever being real stricklers,

38
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.479
they said that he actually had to sing in order

39
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.039
to win a Grammy award. Yeah, Milli Vanilli, they didn't

40
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:37.240
sing on their award winning album Girl. You know it's true.

41
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.280
Now I can see how you could lip sync at

42
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.560
a live concert or on stage. I don't see you

43
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:42.919
slip sync in a record though.

44
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:44.280
All right.

45
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.919
What happened on November the nineteenth Today is National Discover

46
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:52.080
Puerto Rico Day. This was a big party in Puerto Rico.

47
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:54.960
It was Christopher Columbus. See him and his men were

48
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:57.120
the first Europeans to land on Puerto Rico today and

49
00:02:57.199 --> 00:03:00.080
fourteen ninety three. Now that was his second voice. So

50
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:02.360
this time he had seventeen ships and twelve hundred men.

51
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:06.000
Now I named it San Juan Batista translated into Saint

52
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.719
John the Baptist. Sixteen twenty, the ship the Mayflower, it

53
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:12.360
found Cape cod So now they had to start going

54
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:13.759
up and down the coast looking for a place to

55
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:14.280
come ashore.

56
00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:20.000
Four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth

57
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:24.520
on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and

58
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:28.639
dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

59
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.639
Now that wasn't him, but it was today. In eighteen

60
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:34.400
sixty three of the Yes, President Abraham Lincoln delivered as

61
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:37.520
Gettysburg Address. The speech is only two hundred seventy words

62
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.560
two hundred and seventy two words long. Yeah, but it's

63
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.360
one of the most famous speeches in the United States history. Now,

64
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.120
I gave the speech four and a half months late

65
00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:47.360
after the Battle of Gettysburg that was fought in Pennsylvania. Yeah,

66
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:50.599
he was dedicating that battle side is a national cemetery. Now,

67
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:52.560
on the three days of fighting in Gettysburg, there were

68
00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.800
fifty one thousand casualties between the north and South. Thirty

69
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:58.560
two hundred Confederate soldiers were buried there, but not with

70
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:02.199
the honors. So in the seventies, Southern veteran groups they

71
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.879
moved the remains of the Confederate soldiers the cemeteries in Virginia, Georgia,

72
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:08.520
and the Carolinas. But not all the Confederate soldiers actually

73
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:10.439
got moved. There's still a few buried up there in

74
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.039
Gettysburg with their Northern bredlyn. Now everybody knows how the

75
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.240
speech begins, but do you know exactly how long four

76
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:19.959
score and seven years is? Yeah, eighty seven years. A

77
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:23.759
score is twenty years. Eighteen ninety five in Philly, Frederick

78
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:27.319
Blaisdell he invented the self sharpening paper pencil. Today we

79
00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:29.319
call it the China marker. Yeah, the one at the string.

80
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.160
Nineteen sixty five, pop tarts were invented. Sixty one percent

81
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:37.079
of all of us eat pop tarts without toasting them,

82
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:38.360
you know, we just eat them out of the box.

83
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:42.879
Nineteen sixty nine, aboard Apollo twelve, astronauts Charles Conrad and

84
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.360
Alan Bean became the third and fourth people to walk

85
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:47.920
on the moon. Now, as Conrad stepped down to the moon,

86
00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:50.519
he yelled, whoop be man. It might have been a

87
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:52.480
small step for Neil, but that was a big one

88
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.920
for me. Who see now that is cool. That is

89
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:57.680
showing a motion. I mean you're on the moon for

90
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:01.439
crying out loud. A lot better than mol stup real good.

91
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:05.839
Nineteen ninety seven in Des Moines, Iowa, Betty mccaffee, she

92
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:08.800
gave birth to the first steptuplest to survive infancy. That's

93
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:11.600
seven babies. Now. The four boys and three girls are

94
00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:13.639
all twenty seven years old today. So I guess we

95
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:14.759

the back of the arm. Garfield he suffered for over

110
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:57.199

shot him, he had never met Garfield, they didn't know

112
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:03.959
each and he had absolutely no qualifications for any government job. Well,

113
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:06.680
he had written Garfield, you're asking for a job in

114
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.240
the government. When he didn't get an interview, he thought

115
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:12.000
Garfield screwed him over. That's why he shot him. Garfield.

116
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:13.600
He is forty nine years old. When he died. He
