ZIPPY CELEBRATES JUNE 20

GOOD MORNING FELLOW ZIPSTERS,

Taking over today from the "Big Boss" of the blog and we know who he is.  I thought a history lesson of June 20 would be nice so lets see what the day has brought.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WISHES:

First of all to all the Guys and Dolls celebrating theirs today Joey Z and I wish you a great day and many more years to come.

1909 - Actor Errol Flynn, one of my all time favorites.  Star of Robin Hood, Captain Blood and They Died with Their Boots On.  He was a good looking guy and quite the ladies man in Hollywood, read his bio.

1920 - DeForest Kelley, Dr. McCoy from the original Star Trek series.  Better known as "Bones."

1924 - Audie Murphy, the highest medal winner in World War II.  The movie "To Hell and Back", was a true story of his life.  He later became an actor and starred in many western films.  Died at an early age due to a plane crash.

1928 - Martin Landau, actor from the original series "Mission Impossible."

1942 - Brian Wilson, singer and leader of the Beach Boys.

1953 - My gal Cyndi Lauper, singer, "Girls Just Want to have Fun."

TAKEN AWAY TODAY:

1947 - Gangster Bugsy Siegel, shot to death in Beverly Hills, CA.  The mob finds all Bugsy.

GREAT THINGS THAT OCCURED TODAY:

1791 - King Louis XVI was caught trying to escape from the French Revolution.  Off with his head.

1793 - Eli Whitney, applies for a cotton gin patent.  He got it.

1893 - Lizzie Borden, found innocent of murder, she had a great attorney back in those days I guess.

1948 - The show "Toast of the Town", is hosted by Ed Sullivan.  I wonder if he used that phrase, "We have a really big show for you tonight."

Hope you all have a great day and I sure Joey Z will bring you up to some food holidays and other happening events in June tomorrow.
