8
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:46.039
it's pretty simple. Flour, eggs, buttermilk and a cake. It

9
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.960
comes from the Viking word for cucaf Yeah, it was

10
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:51.000
just a bread with honey, basically is what they started with.

11
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:54.359
Coca became cake. Now there are so many types of

12
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:56.399

pow camp that he escaped from. Now he's going to

37
00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:28.400

38
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:31.039
Frank Sinatra, he was arrested in hacking Sack, New Jersey.

39
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:33.319
It's a little Frank dude. Well, yeah, sex with a woman.

40
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:34.919
Then he didn't marry her like you said he would,

41
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:37.120
so Frank k had to spent a little time in jail.

42
00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:39.120
They finally just dropped the charges. They found out that

43
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:40.120
the woman was already married.

44
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:41.639
Alright.

45
00:02:41.719 --> 00:02:44.919
This had happened on November the twenty sixth seventeen sixteen,

46
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.520
the first exotic animal ever was exhibited in America. It

47
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:51.439
was in Boston. They showed off an African lion. Now

48
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.240
that not seemed like very impressive thing, But back then

49
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:56.639
the only thing they had heard about about a lion

50
00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:58.719
was in the Bible. I mean there weren't any photographs

51
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.599
or anything, so no one had any idea what a

52
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.240
lion in the Bible actually looked like. Well, now they knew,

53
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:06.400
and they knew that it really did exist. Seventeen eighty nine,

54
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:09.000
it was the first Thanksgiving that was ever celebrated in America.

55
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:11.080
It had nothing to do with Pilgrims. It was in

56
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:15.000
honor of the United States Constitution being ratified President George Washington.

57
00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:18.439
He decreed today as a national holiday of Thanksgiving. Now

58
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:21.759
it was the first national holiday too. Eighteen thirty four,

59
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:23.840
the first street cars in America started running in New

60
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:26.240
York City. They were pulled by horses. It cost you

61
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:28.719
twelve cents to ride him. Four dollars and forty cents

62
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.840
today not bad. Eighteen sixty five the book Alice in

63
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:34.919
Wonderland by Lewis Carle. Yeah, it was published for the

64
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:38.120
first time. Nineteen twenty two. Now, although he found it

65
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:40.719
three months ago, it was today that Howard Carter is

66
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:43.360
finally allowed to open up King touch to him. Yeah,

67
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.080
Lard Carnivarn, he's the guy who financed the whole thing.

68
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.039
He finally arrived in Egypt now, as we all know. Yeah,

69
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.800
the tomb was completely untouched and intact. Nineteen forty eight,

70
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.960
the Polaroid instant camera went on sale cost you eighty

71
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:58.560
nine dollars and seventy five cents. Today that would be

72
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:02.000
one thousand dollars and sixteen nine one thousand, sixty nine

73
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.479
dollars and sixty nine cents. So what do you think

74
00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:07.639
The first picture is probably taken to somebody's ear. Nineteen

75
00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:10.439
sixty one, Major League Baseball, they voted three to one

76
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:13.759
against legalizing the spitball say, the umps weren't having any

77
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.279
good luck with catching the pictures known this, so let's

78
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:17.959
legalize it. Oh, I said, no, we're not going to

79
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.920
do that. Nineteen seventy and Bassi Terry Guadaloupe one point

80
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.639
five inches of rain fell in one minute. Now, that

81
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:27.000
is still the heaviest rainfall ever recorded.

82
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:27.519

twenty five hundred people pose naked for a picture to

88
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.360
