history

Randomly checking out a This Day in History site this morning and found out that this is the day Lincoln died, the Titanic sunk and Jack Roosevelt Robinson integrated baseball.

Sort of makes you want to check out the news tonight.

Because yesterday (April 14) is my birthday, I also observe the strange facts:
*Lincoln was shot on the 14th and died on the 15th
*The Titanic hit the iceberg on the 14th and sank on the 15th

Hey, Happy Day, Jon.

Not so much for Lincoln and the captain of the Titanic, but...

All the same.
