....for John Kaess and Gary Haberman who share a birthday, today.
Elsewhere in history...
Oct 23 4004 BC According to calculations by 17th century biblical
theologian James Ussher, God creates the heavens and the Earth.
Oct 23 1976 In an astonishing lack of forethought, President Jimmy
Carter admits a deadly sin in a Playboy magazine interview: "I've looked
on many women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times.
God knows I will do this and forgives me."
Oct 23 1983 NBC news anchor Jessica Savitch drowns in 18 inches of
dirty water after her car flips upside down into a ditch. The events are
later played out in a lovely Almost Golden: The Jessica Savitch Story,
made-for-cable tearjerker.
Oct 23 1983 An Islamic Jihad suicide bomber drives a truck loaded with
2.5 tons of TNT into the US Marine barracks in Beirut, Lebanon. The
explosion kills 241 American servicemen. Simultaneously, a smaller truck
bomb strikes another base in Beirut, killing 58 French soldiers. Even
though the NSA has proof that the Iranians are behind the attacks,
President Ronald Reagan begins delivering them weapons for hostages only
39 days later.
Oct 23 1987 Robert Bork is borked, the Senate voting a record 58 to 42
to refuse him a seat on the Supreme Court. Ostensibly this was because
he admitted to smoking marijuana as a youth, which would be the wrong
reason. He should have been rejected for being a statist sleazebag.
Oct 23 1995 The murderer of the popstar singer Selena, and president of
her fan club, Yolanda Saldivar, found guilty in Houston of her slaying.
Oct 23 1997 Newborn son of The Artist Formerly Known As Prince dies of
complications from a "rare skull deformity." The baby's death
certificate fails to name either the father or mother.
