On the day of this chronological curiosity, we mark the following events:
Mary Stuart is crowned Queen of Scots in 1543.
Étienne Brulé discovers Toronto in 1615. Toronto is an Iroquois word meaning "a good place to do business". It also means "there is nowhere to park your car".
The United States is officially called the United States in 1776 by the Continental Congress.
Lev Tolstoy is born in 1828. (notice how short that sentence is)
Cliff Robertson (Uncle Ben in the "Spider-Man" movies) is born in 1923.
Otis Redding is born in 1941.
The Republic of North Korea is declared in 1948. It hasn't gone anywhere (unfortunately).
Goran Visnjic was born in 1972. There is a noticeable ice melt on the polar caps.
Who thought there was nothing fascinating about his day? Not me!
