Non-musical history for today: 1869 – In New Brunswick, New Jersey, Rutgers College defeated Princeton University (then known as the College of New Jersey), 6–4, in the first official intercollegiate American football game. I can only guess that scoring systems were different, then. Is that two field goals beating two safeties? Or one touchdown with a missed extra point beating two safeties? I dunno.

Non-musical history for today: A repost of last year…
1605 – Gunpowder Plot: Guy Fawkes was arrested in the cellars of the Houses of Parliament, where he had planted gunpowder in an attempt to blow up the building and kill King James I of England.
Remember, remember, the 5th of November,
Gunpowder, treason, and plot.
I see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, ’twas his intent
To blow up the King and the Parliament
Three score barrels of powder below
Poor old England to overthrow
By God’s providence, he was catch’d
With a dark lantern and burning match
Holler boys, holler boys, let the bells ring
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the King!

Non-musical history for today: 1953 – Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 was published. Bred out of McCarthyism, the book was a dystopic look at book burning and outlawing.

Non-musical history for today: 1793 – French Revolution: Queen Marie Antoinette was executed. Preparing for her execution, she had to change clothes in front of her guards. She wanted to wear a black dress but was forced to wear a plain white dress, white being the color worn by the widowed queens of France. Her hair was shorn, her hands bound painfully behind her back, and she was put on a rope leash. She rode an open-air carriage for over an hour, getting jeered and booed by the common folk. A clergyman was assigned to her, but she refused to talk to him or make any last confessions. She accidentally stepped on the executioner's shoe and reportedly said, "Pardonnez-moi, monsieur. Je ne l'ai pas fait exprès" or "Pardon me, sir, I did not do it on purpose." Anna Marie Tussaud, yes, Madame Tussaud, was commissioned to make her death mask after being separated from her head.

Non-musical history for today: 1921 – KDKA in Pittsburgh's Forbes Field conducted the first live football game broadcast. Beginning with the introduction of licensing in late 1912, the standard practice had been to assign call letters starting with "W" to radio stations east of the Mississippi River. However, KDKA received its assignment during a short period when land stations were being issued call letters from a sequential block of "K" call letters that had previously been assigned only to ship stations. Although the original policy was restored a few months later, KDKA was permitted to keep its non-standard call sign. This is why it is a "K" station but east of the Mississippi River.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for October 8.Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.Leave comments at tim@beeswaxvinyl.com or 336-422-NUMB (6862).Tune into Camel City Radio via the app (for iOS and Android), Alexa, or Audacy.On Camel City Radio, it's hump day every day!

Non-musical history for today: 1923 – The Mandate for Palestine took effect, creating Mandatory Palestine. The Mandate for Syria and Lebanon also took effect. The Syria and Lebanon parts took. Mandatory Palestine, however, was a harder pill to swallow. Mandatory Palestine (which meant by mandate, not compulsory or required) was inundated with Jewish immigrants, and this led to an Arab revolt in the 1930s and the Jewish uprising in the late 1940s. We know that Israel was given statehood in 1948, and it was pretty much stolen from the Palestinians by the UN.

Non-musical history for today: 1586 – A number of conspirators in the Babington Plot were hanged, drawn and quartered. The Babington Plot was the conspiracy to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I and her cousin Mary, Queen of the Scots.

During the trial, she was not permitted legal counsel nor to review the evidence against her nor to call witnesses. Portions of the letter translations were read at the trial. Mary was convicted of treason against England and after Elizabeth signed the death warrant of her cousin, Mary was executed in early 1587.

Non-musical history for today: 1837 – Charles Lewis Tiffany and Teddy Young in New York City founded Tiffany & Co. (first named Tiffany & Young).

In 2001, they partnered with Pantone (who officially names colors, apparently) to standardize what is called "1837 Blue."

Will and Charlie) helped the town and recruited help from a local nursing convent. After the initial peril subsided, Mother Alfred Moes, the founder of the Sisters of Saint Francis of Rochester, Minnesota (the convent), approached the Mayos about the church raising the funds for a new clinic if the Mayos would agree to be the resident physicians and surgeons.

Non-musical history for today: 1374 – A sudden outbreak of “St. John’s Dance” caused people in the streets of Aachen, Germany, to experience hallucinations and begin to jump and twitch uncontrollably until they collapsed from exhaustion and, in some cases, died.

There are theories that it was stress relief or mass psychogenic illness, in which physical symptoms with no known physical cause are observed to affect a group of people as a form of social influence. I’m thinking, hmmm, this area was probably rural. They probably burned things. I wonder if there were poppies or shrooms or something around there? I really don’t know. Boogie on, Alsatians, boogie on.

Louis’s indecision, many delays, and misunderstanding of France were responsible for the failure of the escape. Within 24 hours, the royal family was arrested at a small monastery town after Jean-Baptiste Drouet recognized the king from his profile on paper money (called livres) and had given the alert. Louis and his family were taken back to Paris. Viewed suspiciously as traitors, they were placed under tight house arrest upon their return to the large palace known as Tuileries.

Non-musical history for today: 1509 – Henry VIII of England married Catherine of Aragon. Yep. She was the OG, the original, the one that started it all, the first, numero uno! The marriage was eventually annulled in 1533 after Hank assumed dominion over the church in England (which led to the CoE, by the way). She died of cancer three years later. Hank wanted a divorce because she wasn’t producing any male heirs, and there was no precedence for a female monarch. Her daughter, Mary, however, became the first full-fledged Queen Regnant (meaning the sovereign equivalent to a king).

Non-musical history for today: 1953 – Approximately 7,100 brewery workers in Milwaukee performed a walkout, marking the start of the 1953 Milwaukee brewery strike. A.

Valentin (one of the smaller breweries) started negotiating with the unions, which led to the workers eventually winning the strike and the members voting to accept new contracts that addressed many of their initial concerns.

It was because of Anne, or rather Henry wanting Anne and with him unable to get rid of Catherine of Aragon, that England broke away from the Catholic Church, and the Church of England was established.

Non-musical history for today: 1770 – James Cook arrived in Australia at Botany Bay, which he named.

It was hypothesized that certain forms, such as fleas, could arise from inanimate matter, such as dust, or that maggots could arise from dead flesh. Eww…

The term is still around today, and we know it as Alderman. Osbald abdicated because everyone abandoned him. Last one out, blow out the torch, or something like that…

Non-musical history for today: 1952 – U.S. President Harry Truman called for the seizure of all domestic steel mills in an attempt to prevent the 1952 steel strike. The strike was scheduled to begin on April 9, 1952, but Truman nationalized the entire steel industry hours before the workers walked out. The steel companies sued to regain control of their facilities. On June 2, 1952, in a landmark decision, the US Supreme Court ruled that the President lacked the authority to seize the steel mills. The strike involved 560,000 workers. It lasted 53 days and ended on July 24, 1952, essentially with the same terms that the union had proposed four months earlier. Truman could have saved the trouble and grief if they'd just been given what was asked.

An antipope was a person who claimed to be Bishop of Rome and leader of the Catholic Church in opposition to the legitimately elected pope. Between the 3rd century and this date, antipopes were supported by factions within the Church itself and secular rulers.

Non-musical history for today: 1930 – The Motion Picture Production Code was instituted, imposing strict guidelines on the treatment of sex, crime, religion, and violence in film in the U.S. for the next thirty-eight years. Sometimes it is called the Hays Code after Will H. Hays. Either way, it was stupid and detrimental to quality film production. There were attempts to create a "rating system," but that was continually shot down until Eric Johnston died, and a more forward-thinking regime was installed. I still think the ratings are a bit stupid, but it's better than it was under the "watchful eyes" of the Hays folks.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for March 31.Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.Leave comments at tim@beeswaxvinyl.com or 336-422-NUMB (6862).Tune into Camel City Radio.

Over the next few days, the mob would riot, assault some jurors, and burn down the courthouse. A young white German named William Berner and his accomplice, Joe Palmer, a man of mixed African and European descent, robbed and murdered their employer, William Kirk. They then dumped him in a nearby creek. The jury returned a manslaughter verdict despite the testimony of SEVEN different people to whom Berner had admitted his premeditation and execution of the murder. The judge gave 20 years and said it was an outrage. Newspapers called for protest.

Non-musical history for today: 1989—In Prince William Sound in Alaska, the Exxon Valdez spilled 240,000 barrels of crude oil after running aground. It was most likely not because of a drunken captain. He was not on deck at the time. The third mate was supposed to be relieved by the second mate, but because the second was overworked, the third didn't wake him. The ships' radar (to inform of land) was broken up to a year before the incident, and Exxon didn't fix it. So, truly the causes aren't the important part here; the result is. And that led to one of the worst (second worst in amount of spillage) oil/environmental disasters in US history.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for March 24.Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.Leave comments at tim@beeswaxvinyl.com or 336-422-NUMB (6862).Tune into Camel City Radio.

Non-musical history for today: 1861 – Alexander H. Stephens gave the Cornerstone Speech. This idiot, who happened to be the Vice President of the Confederacy at the time, used the word "cornerstone" to describe the "great truth" of white supremacy and black subordination upon which secession and the Confederacy were deemed necessary. So, to anyone who wants to argue that the Civil War wasn't about slavery... well, first read the articles of succession from Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, and others; they all said it WAS about slavery. But, even beyond that, you have Stephens here, who defended slavery as a fundamental and just result of the SUPPOSED inferiority of the black race.

Non-musical history for today: 44 BC – The assassination of Julius Caesar took place on the Ides of March. That is real and isn't just a storybook thing from Bill Shakespeare. The Romans did not number each day of a month from the first to the last day. Instead, they counted back from three "fixed points" of the month: the Nones (the 5th or 7th, 8 days before the Ides), the Ides (which was the 13th for most months, but the 15th in March, May, July, and October), and the Kalends (1st of the following month). Originally the Ides were supposed to be determined by the full moon, reflecting the lunar origin of the Roman calendar. In the earliest calendar, the Ides of March would have been the first full moon of the new year. I'm glad we just have numbers now.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for March 15.Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.Leave comments at tim@beeswaxvinyl.com or 336-422-NUMB (6862).Tune into Camel City Radio.

Non-musical history for today: 1794 – Eli Whitney was granted a patent for the cotton gin. This was simultaneously a good and bad thing. Good because it made cotton farming more productive and profitable. However, because Whitney never invented the machine to harvest cotton: it still had to be picked by hand. The invention has thus been identified as an inadvertent contributing factor to the outbreak of the American Civil War. That is a good thing because the war put an end to slavery. So, good and bad in one machine.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for March 14.Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty Plaza.Leave comments at tim@beeswaxvinyl.com or 336-422-NUMB (6862).Tune into Camel City Radio.

Non-musical history for today: Because there have only been 97 February 29ths in the last 400 years, I will include a couple of things for today.1504 – Christopher Columbus used his knowledge of a lunar eclipse that night to convince Jamaican natives to provide him with supplies. Voodoo and black magic are mostly smoke and mirrors, boys and girls. Or, someone just knows of things ahead of time. Now, that doesn't excuse the Jamaicans from being hornswoggled by Columbus. But, I think they can be forgiven. Just more evidence that Christopher Columbus was an a-hole swindler.1712 – February 29 was followed by February 30 in Sweden, in a move to abolish the Swedish calendar for a return to the Julian calendar.

Non-musical history for today: It is observed worldwide to be Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day.

Stephanie and I do NOT celebrate Valentine's Day. It is, to us, an excuse for FTD, DeBeers, Whitman's, and Hallmark to overcharge and over-commercialize their wares as a ploy to fleece young lovers as something that is "needed" or a necessity.

Broadcast Music, Inc., or BMI, is just as big, and SESAC (Society of European Stage Authors and Composers) has become a main player. SESAC is the second oldest performance-rights org in the US.

It was most likely a man named Jim Conley.

Non-Musical history for today: 1945 – A U.S. Army B-25 bomber crashed into the 79th floor of the Empire State Building, killing 14 and injuring 26. Other than the gaping hole, the ESB was not structurally damaged. That's one strong building. Lieutenant Colonel William Smith Jr., was piloting a B-25 Mitchell bomber on a routine personnel transport mission from Bedford Army Air Field in Massachusetts to Newark Metropolitan Airport in New Jersey. Smith asked for clearance to land, but he was advised of zero visibility. He wasn't having it and proceeded anyway. He became disoriented by the fog and turned right instead of left after passing the Chrysler Building. One engine shot out the back of the building and landed on the roof of a neighboring building which caused a fire in a penthouse art studio.

Non-Musical history for today: 356 BC – The Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, was destroyed by arson. I find the "Seven..." to be fascinating. In the beginning, because the concept was from the limited knowledge of the world at the time, all the Wonders were around the Eastern Mediterranean, encompassing Western Asia, Southeastern Europe, and North Africa. The fire was set by Herostratus, a man looking to get famous. If you've heard of the term herostratic fame, it was named after him. It means to commit a crime for the purpose of being famous.

Non-Musical history for today: 1799 – The Rosetta Stone was found in the Egyptian village of Rosetta by French Captain Pierre-François Bouchard during Napoleon's Egyptian Campaign. The Rosetta Stone is a stele (stone monument) composed of granodiorite inscribed with three versions of a decree issued in Memphis, Egypt, in 196 BC during the Ptolemaic dynasty on behalf of King Ptolemy V Epiphanes. The top and middle texts are in Ancient Egyptian using hieroglyphic and Demotic scripts respectively, while the bottom is in Ancient Greek. The decree has only minor differences between the three versions, making the Rosetta Stone key to deciphering the Egyptian scripts.

Both were probably due to NASA's determination of higher mission rates over the safety of its crew. Way to go, NASA.

Most of the Cherokee disapproved, and more than these three were listed as targets, with one more attempt on Stand Watie being unsuccessful. It kicked off the Cherokee Civil War, which ran well after the American Civil War ended.

And ain’t I a woman?” She was referring to how white women were revered, but black women were not.
Also… happy Memorial Day to you all. This is a day to remember the fallen heroes of the armed services. Many folks mix up Memorial Day and Veterans Day. This is to honor the fallen. Veterans Day is for anyone who served.

If you’re not reading between the lines, it shouldn’t say, Land Rush, it should say land grab, and it should all be given back to who had it before it was stolen from them. Namely, the Chickisaw, Chocktaw, Creek, Seminole, and Cherokee tribes.

And, in 1984, The Baltimore Colts loaded its possessions onto fifteen Mayflower moving trucks in the early morning hours and transfer its operations to Indianapolis. The Maryland General Assembly was in the middle of approving a law (and the governor was waiting to sign it) to take possession of the Colts via eminent domain. Robert Irsay (then owner of the Colts) had been in talks with both Phoenix and Indianapolis. The mayor of Indy was friends with John B Smith, who owned Mayflower Van Lines and they sent the trucks and started moving by 10 pm. The next morning, by the time the MGA had passed the law, the Colts were already gone. Ta ta Baltimore.

Today is one of the most overly-hyped/overpriced days of the year. A day where FTD, Hallmark, DeBeers, and Whitman’s can charge us out the wazoo without us complaining about it. I’m all for capitalism… but I can’t go for that, no can do. Besides Stephanie and I celebrate Valentine’s Day equivalent every day. But, for some context, there are a number of martyrdom stories associated with various Valentines connected to February 14, including an account of the imprisonment of Saint Valentine of Rome for ministering to Christians persecuted under the Roman Empire in the third century. According to an early tradition, Saint Valentine restored sight to the blind daughter of his jailer.

The Pennsylvania Dutch superstition states that if a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day and sees its shadow due to clear weather, it will retreat to its den, and winter will go on for six more weeks; if it does not see its shadow because of cloudiness, spring will arrive early. Pssst… Winter still goes on for six weeks… Until March 21. Those wacky Pennsylvania Dutch.

Today is National Religious Freedom Day. It means the freedom of an individual or community, in public or private, to manifest religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship, and observance. Much to the chagrin of many, it also includes the freedom to change one’s religion or beliefs, “the right not to profess any religion or belief,” or “not to practice a religion at all.” I appreciate that last part.

The first day of 2023. Where did the time go!? The eighth day of Christmas supposedly represents the eight beatitudes. The Beatitudes are sayings attributed to Jesus and, in particular, eight blessings recounted by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew, and four in the Sermon on the Plain in the Gospel of Luke, followed by four woes which mirror the blessings. Whatever that means… Happy 2023!

The “-mas” part is from the Latin-derived Old English word for “Mass,” while the “X” comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, translated as “Christ.” Therefore, Xmas is just as much Christmas as Christmas. Ask your favorite Greek!
