00:00:10.359 --> 00:00:13.439
Well, hello, I am Jeff and welcome to History and Facto.

2
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:16.079
It is about today, presented by Cool Media. Today's October

3
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:16.920
the twenty seventh.

8
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:43.320
Today is National Black Cat Day. As those of you

9
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.520
have gone to my Facebook page, No, I have two

10
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:47.880
black cats, so every day is a black cat Day

11
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:51.280
at my house. Now, why are black cats associated with Halloween?

12
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:53.439
It goes back to the twelve hundred. It's Pope Gregory

13
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.119
the ninth. He put word out that black cats were

14
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:58.920
partners with Satan at the day. That kind of stuck.

15
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:01.560
Now it doesn't say anywhere on the Bible, but people

16
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:04.640
believed him. But not all people England, Ireland and Japan.

17
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:06.519
They all believe that black cats bring a good look.

18
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:10.519
I concur now they don't know why, but there are

19
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:13.560
a lot lot more black cats that are male than females.

20
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:16.840
And because of the stigma and black cats that they

21
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:19.079
bring bad luck and they're evil and that kind of stuff,

22
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:21.400
black cats are at least adopted at cat shelters. So

23
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:25.400
today's actually bring awareness. Black Cat's rock. So if you

24
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:27.280
can you get a chance. Yeah, I'm ahead, and adopt

25
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:29.840
yourself a black cat. Trust me, once you go black Cat,

on October the twenty seventh and the year three twelve

45
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:49.879
now the Roman Empire. They were worshiping a number of

46
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.680
pagan gods, and the Roman Empire they were really really

47
00:02:52.719 --> 00:02:55.520
dealing with a lot of civil wars throughout the entire place. Yeah,

48
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:57.479
it was from different clans and factions and all that

49
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:00.719
kind of stuff. Well, Roman Empire, Constantine the Great as

50
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:02.520
he is preparing for one of those battles. It was

51
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:05.159
the Battle of Milvian Bridge. He saw a vision. He

52
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.240
looked up and there was this huge cross in the sky.

53
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.919
Underneath it had said hawk signal Vinces means with this sign,

54
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:13.680
you shall win. Well he took it to heart. So

55
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.280
the next day when his army showed up for the battle, yeah,

56
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:19.000
they were all wearing the Cairo sign. Now that's the

57
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:21.680
sign for Christ. It is the two Greek leaders for

58
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.800

crossed it. Now, his army won that battle in a

60
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:29.680
complete route. Well, that convinced Constantini. He converted right then

61
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:31.719
in there and became a Christian. Then he turned the

62
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:35.479

65
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.520

165
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.639
incorporate that into their logo. They just needed to come

166
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:27.080
up with a name. They had STP in it. That's

167
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:29.840
how you got Stone Temple Pilots. Some of their hats

168
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:33.200
Plush Vasselaine, Crep, Interstate Love Song. So there were forty

169
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:36.600
million albums. They fired Scott in twenty thirteen. So then

170
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:38.600
he sang for a Velvet Revolver and he did some

171
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:41.639
solo stuff. Turned his life. He devised tour twice and

172
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:43.399
he had a son and a daughter from his second wife.

173
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:46.080
Now Scott is pretty much a train wreck. Drugs and

174
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.559
alcohol albums that pretty much his rife. They finally got

175
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:51.039
him in twenty fifteen and forty eight years old, died

176
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.080
on his tour bus, accidental overdose a cocaine, alcohol and myth.

177
00:09:55.399 --> 00:09:57.440

180
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:08.120
