More pilfering

from Shelly, the font of all that is good in memage today


Go to Wikipedia and look up your birth day (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.
Facts:

1927 - Leon Trotsky is expelled from the Soviet Communist Party, leaving Joseph Stalin with undisputed control of the Soviet Union.

1938 - Hermann Göring announces Nazi Germany plans to make Madagascar the "Jewish homeland", an idea that actually was first considered by 19th century journalist Theodor Herzl.

1970 - The Oregon Highway Division attempts to destroy a rotting beached Gray whale with explosives, leading to the now infamous exploding whale incident

Births:

1815 - Elizabeth Cady Stanton, American women's rights activist (d. 1902)

1929 - Grace Kelly, Princess Grace of Monaco, American actress (d. 1982)

Death:

1035 - Canute the Great

All I can say is that Germans are insane (I'm part German somewhere back there a few generations) and why was the Oregan Highway Dept in charge of whale removal in the first place?
