Good Day Guys and Dolls:

Let’s have a little history lesson today, but first I have to tell you about a new website I found today, it’s called Ehow You want to know how to do something this one is for you. I will attach a direct link at the bottom. Now it’s time for Speakie History 101:

Things That Happened Today:
1835 – The Liberty Bell cracks again
1977 – Sabra Starr finishes longest recorded Belly Dance (100 Hours) – not much of interest happened from 1835 to 1977. Not much after that either.

Thought for the Day: “Better the shoulder to the wheel than the back to the wall.”
