Only 152 days left in the year!
Okay, so 152 is not a few. Here are a few interesting facts about August 1.
527 - Justinian I became Byzantine Emperor. That's a picture of him on the right.
1774 - The element oxygen was discovered by Joseph Priestly and Carl Wilhelm Scheele.
I wonder what we did before oxygen?
1941 - The first Jeep is produced. Does anyone know why they call it a "Jeep?"
1942 - A year later, the first Jerry Garcia was produced. I'm not sure when the first Cherry Garcia was produced.
1957 - NORAD is formed.
1961 - Six Flags Over Texas opens.
1973 - Tempestt Bledsoe was born. I wonder what we did before the Cosby Show?

Cool! I was hoping some other good stuff came of my birthdate besides MTV's first broadcast of "Video Killed The Radio Star" and Germany declaring war on Russia which was part of what started WWI.
Thanks.
