1
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:21.800
Welcome to history and facto. It's about today. I am

2
00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:23.519
Jeff and today's November the twenty fifth.

3
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:32.240
Today this could be the best my life dream day.

4
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.719
That about the fun weel has, just me.

5
00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:45.200
And you doing what I'm always wonting to.

6
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.759
Today is National Play with Dad Day. Yeah, today is

7
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:52.079
to increase dads to take an active role in their

8
00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:55.200
kids' life. I'll just spend some time with them today. Now,

9
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:57.920
it is not a judgment by society that dads don't

10
00:00:57.920 --> 00:00:59.920
spend enough time with their kids. Now, this has come

11
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.000
from the dads. Sixty three percent of all dads, so

12
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.200
they did not spend enough time with their kids. So

13
00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:07.319
days just reminder for you out and go do what

14
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:08.920
you really want to do and let's be with your kids.

15
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:11.319
So dads and kids go out and have fun together.

16
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:13.799
I kind of think today was created by the wives.

17
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:17.120
All right, this is going on entertainment on November twenty fifth,

18
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:19.599
Let's back to nineteen eighty six. Number one album was

20
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.959

The number one book was World Win by James Cleveel.

29
00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:14.280
Top movie it was Star Trek four or The Voyager Home.

30
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:17.159
I had to save Earth from Alians Kirk and his crew.

31
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:18.879
They have to go back in time to San Francisco

32
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:22.319

In New York City, he became the first sword swallow

40
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:49.080

41
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:51.680

I mean today that'd be four dollars and five cents.

49
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:15.319
But if you actually look at their menu today, cheapest

50
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:18.319

51
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:22.599

The first nuclear powered aircraft carrier had eight nuclear reactors.

71
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:30.720
Now they quickly realized that that was way overkilled, so

72
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.480

73
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.040

00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:01.560
the United S, they said, fifty five miles an hour

84
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:04.279

00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:07.199
Oh that's everywhere nowhere could you drive faster than fifty

86
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.360

how much energy do we conserve? Nothing? It didn't do anything,

88
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:16.040

and I can't drive fifty five song. Yeah, even got

90
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:21.120

91
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:23.160
they got rid of that law, but it was kind

92
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:25.279
of like marijuana. By the time the government got rid

93
00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:27.160

94
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:28.480

she did her first movie. It was Jaws of Seatan Hey.

165
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:24.120
Now she got famous, of course for playing belt Kelly Bundy,

166
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:27.639

00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:42.679
a rough time. That's something she's doing very good. So

174

00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.759
socialist and communists, they call him Marxist linus Lininus that

182
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:08.919
