What’s Trending
Today?
This
is Buzzy Cohen, the current reigning Jeopardychampion, who so far
has racked up a seven-day total of $133,402 in winnings.
What’s Wacky Today?
Today
is Sally Ride Day. I have to confess, I did not remember or know who Sally Ride
was until I created today’s article. She was the first American woman to go
into space and in 2003 was added to the Astronaut Hall of Fame.
Heads Up for
Tomorrow:
Sun Screen Day
What Wacky happened
on this date in the past?
In
1647 a new law banned Catholic priests from Massachusetts colony as a first
offense; the second offense was death. Montana is recognized as a territory in
1864. The H-bomb was patented in 1946. 1961 sees a record flight of U.S. Air
Force bomber across the Atlantic in just over three hours. And, da-da-da, daaah
dah… Star Wars movie debuts in 1977. And the Dodge Viper rolls off the assembly
line for the first time in 1992!

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“Never

“That
is why you fail”
“Do
or do not. There is no try”
All
of the above are awesome Star Wars quotes. In celebration of its debut in 1977
here is a fun clip from the film. Enjoy.
