Interesting History Trivia
Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 06:50 PM by Sequoia
April 14, 1865 Good Friday (we know what happened that night)
April 14, 2006 Good Friday (we don't know what will happen)

April 11, 1865 Full Moon
April 13, 2006 Full Moon

April 18, 1906 - Easter Monday (yep, we know what happened)
April 18, 2006 - Easter Tuesday (yep, we know what's planned)

Why does this matter? It doesn't but I thought it was interesting how things seem to line up.



(The couple with the Lincolns were engaged and later married. The guy went crazy and murdered his wife.) Read that new book, "Manhunt" totally rad.



Actually close to 3,000 people perished (still counting). Santa Rosa was laid flat and they had a fire also. Read: "The Great Earthquake and Firestorms of 1906 : How San Francisco Nearly Destroyed Itself" by Philip L. Fradkin (I met this man and we had a nice chat about that day.)

1. Only one flaw that I can see, Dubya's brain size
Bush would need microsurgery to remove his brain, not a handgun.
