What happened on your birthday?

Same here, too many things.

 

Most of them are war or assassination related, the ones that don't:

 

"1878 – Thomas Edison patents the phonograph."

"1884 – More than sixty tornadoes strike the Southern United States, one of the largest tornado outbreaks in U.S. history."

"1985 – William J. Schroeder becomes the first recipient of an artificial heart to leave hospital."

"2002 – NASA's Mars Odyssey space probe begins to map the surface of Mars using its thermal emission imaging system."

"2006 – A methane explosion in a coal mine near Nueva Rosita, Mexico, kills 65 miners."

"1985 – Iberia Airlines Boeing 727 crashes into Mount Oiz in Spain, killing 148."

July 7! America began its first military draft. Sliced bread was sold for the first time. The Roswell Incident! Sandra Day O' Connor was appointed to be the first female Supreme Court member.

I share a birthday with Ringo Starr and Jim Gaffigan, cool stuff.
