It's November 14th!!! Can You Believe It!?!
Today has to be one of the least interesting days in history all year. I have done my research, would like to present the following list of the the most interesting things I could find out about November 14:
- Moby Dick was first published on this day in 1851
- Teddy Roosevelt became the first US President to visit a foreign country- he went to Panama in 1906
- The first visit by a Pope to the White House happened on this day in 1979 (John Paul II)
- Michael Jackson's video for Black or White premiered on Fox on this day in 1991
- In 1993 Don Shula became the "winningest" coach in NFL history. Well maybe this is only notable to me because I have felt a personally connection with him since having been to his restaurant in Key West.
- Birthdays: Claude Monet, Boutros-Boutros Ghali, Aaron Copland, Condi Rice, Prince Charles (not even any notable celebrity birthdays to speak of)
- In 2004 Iran announced it was voluntarily and temporarily suspending its uranium enrichment program in response to international discussions. Hindsight being 20/20 maybe these talks could have been taken a little more seriously, because now...
- In 2006 (today) Iran announced its uranium enrichment program is close to reaching manufacturing capabilities, and officials report they expect it to be fully operational and capable of fulfilling Iran's power needs within the next few months. Another rogue state will soon join the nuclear club. So what happened to the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty exactly?!
Also, FYI Mercury's Retrograde period is coming to a close this week- enough reflecting, time to start acting! :)
