Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

Good Morning Speakies: Today was a lousy day in history, but that's no excuse for not getting a lesson today, so here we go:

1924 - Dennis Weaver - Actor Chester-Gunsmoke and movie Duel.
1944 - Michelle Phillips - Singer Mamas and Papas.

Died Today:

1970 - Menasha Skulnik - Comedian, wonder if was he or she was related to the Skulnik's from Revenge of the Nerds.

On This Day:

1070 - Roquefort Cheese created in a cave near Roquefort, France - There's a real fact for you.
1940 - German forces enter Paris in WWII. -Like Bogey said, "We'll always have Paris".
1942 - Battle of Midway begins. Later becomes movie with Charlton Heston.
1944 - 5th U.S. Army enters and liberates Rome from Mussolini's Facist armies. Macaroni and Vino for everyone.
