00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:21.760
Hi, I am Jeff, and welcome to History and Factor.

2
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:24.719
It's about today. It is October the first. Now I'm

3
00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:26.480
still trying to figure out what to celebrate for the

4
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:29.399
national day to day. I mean, it's International Coffee Day,

5
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:32.600
but we just celebrated coffee two days ago. His National

6
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:36.200
Homemade Cookie Day that there are lots of days about

7
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:38.759
cookies throughout the year. Is National black Dog Day, but

8
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:41.679
I don't have one of those. National Pumpkin Seed Day.

9
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:44.000
That's he to be closer to Halloween, I think. So,

10
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:45.759
I guess I'm gonna have to break down and celebrate

11
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:51.799
something that I just don't have a lot of nowadays.

12
00:00:51.799 --> 00:01:08.439
Shining gleam and steam. Yesterday is National hair Day. I

13
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:11.319
hear your brother. Now haircare, it's come a long way

14
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.840
since Cleopatra washed her hair and donkey milk. Now to

15
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:17.680
do today? Right? They want you to celebrate kind of

16
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:20.000
a show off. How hair is your personality? You know,

17
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.519
you just do something different, be something spontaneous, maybe get

18
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:24.959
a different cut. You don't have to go too while,

19
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:27.760
just have fun with your hair, and yes, remember to

20
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.920
do proper hair care today and all that kind of stuff. Now,

21
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:32.480
I don't want to be a downer. But I just

22
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.959
want to remind everybody that you realize though, that for

23
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:38.760
every hair that you can actually see on your head

24
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:41.519
near your body, yeah, it means it's dead. That's right,

25
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:44.760
the hair. It's dead as a follicle. So that's a

26
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:47.040
lot of money that's been spent on something that's dead.

27
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:49.640
Just putting it out there though. Okay, I'm a little

28
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:52.400
jealous of you with hair, all right. It is October

29
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:55.560
eighth month. Well it was the eighth month. Burst stones

30
00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:59.200
of October opal and turmaline. The birth flowers are Mara

31
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.280
golden Cosmo. Now, if you're born in October, let means

32
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.280
you're you other a lie brere scorpio. October's four moon.

33
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:08.560
It's the Harvestman. Okay, that's who's going on entertainment in

34
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:11.240
October first, that's back. In nineteen seventy eight, number one

35
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:14.120
album was a Grease movie soundtrack. Exile had the number

36
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:26.240
one song with kiss You All Over, Kursue, Oh, the

37
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:40.639
Kissue Off Till the Night Closer Clo Dolly Pardoner the

38
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:42.919
number one country song with Heartbreaker.

39
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:54.680
But fun I'm Josh like we Shan't see a little

40
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:58.719
over was Blasting Sweet Anger.

41
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.479
The number one book was Chesapick by James Mitchener. The

42
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:13.400
top movie was Animal House. Now Animal House, that might

43
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:15.800
be the best documentary of all time. If follows a

44
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.039
group of young men in college and they have to

45
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:20.800
deal with basically drinking and girls and all that kind

46
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:23.280
of stuff. We'll try to maintain good grades, and then

47
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:26.240
it goes south. See the young guys, they're really innocent,

48
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:28.479
pier they get pushed to the brink by a really

49
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.520
authority of czar who actually ruins their college. Yeah, so

50
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:34.159
I'm want to check that out. It's kind of entertaining.

51
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.599
I would have been not October the first. Now, during

52
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:40.240
the Civil War, if you were drafted up into the

53
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:43.439
Union army, Yeah, you could actually pay the substitute for it.

54
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:46.199
That's right back there, that it was legal. You could have.

55
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:48.520
The rich guys would pay another guy around three hundred

56
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:51.120
bucks to actually go into the army for him. Well today,

57
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:54.719
in eighteen sixty four, John summerfalls Staples, he was paid

58
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:57.800
five hundred bucks. Yeah, he was substitute for Yes, President

59
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:01.240
Abraham Lincoln. Say Lincoln, he wanted to He's like everybody else,

60
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.919
except with the guys with money. Now in South they

61
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:06.719
used substitutes down there in the Confederacy too. Now, some

62
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:08.719
of those substitutes down south, they got up to three

63
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:11.919
thousand dollars, so they knew they weren't coming back. Now. Staples, though,

64
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:13.800
he had a pretty good felling in for Lincoln. Yeah,

65
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:16.519
he didn't see any action, and he was pretty much

66
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:18.240
a clerk, and then he ended up as a prison guard.

67
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:21.319
Now today it's a big day for socialists out there,

68
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:23.959
not just here in the United States, but worldwide. Eighteen

69
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:27.480
sixty seven, Karl Marx published his book Dos Capitel. It

70
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:30.519
talked all about how he thought that capitalism system sucked.

71
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:33.680
In eighteen ninety the United States Congress created the seventy

72
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.000
National Park out there in California. It was a second

73
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:40.160
national park. Yeah, Yellowstone is first. Eighteen ninety one Stanford

74
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:43.680
University opened up. Now Leland and Jane Stanford they had

75
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:46.480
actually donated forty million dollars or endoubted or whever to

76
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:49.639
start the university. Say, they created it to honor their son,

77
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:52.560
Leland Junior. Now, he died when he was fifteen years

78
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:56.560
old from typhoid fever. So today it's actually Stanford's official name. Yeah,

79
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:00.000
it's Leland Stanford Junior University. Now that forty million dollar

80
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.240
dollars that they granted or endowed or whatever be about

81
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:06.480

two to three thousand bucks. Eighth and fifty dollars back

86
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:20.759
