Today in history

1968 - Pope Paul VI declares any artificial forms of birth control prohibited. Only George Foreman (10 kids) and Shawn Kemp (7 kids with 6 different women) appear to listen.

1974 - I'm just chillin' in mom's womb.



1981 - Prince Charles of England weds Lady Diana Spencer. (Over the years, many events would affect this marriage: they divorce, she dies, he gets remarried to, what appears to be, another man.)

1991 - Donald Trump gives Marla Maples a 7+ carat engagement ring.

1999 - Donald Trump wishes he hadn't given Marla Maples a 7+ carat engagement ring.

Geddy Lee, of my least favorite rock band, Rush, turns 52.

Now, I know that a lot of people don't like Rush, but least favorite rock band?

You'd rather listen to Winger, for example?

Sadly enough, kom, yes I would rather listen to Winger. I actually have 2 or 3 Winger CDs and no Rush CDs.
