Happy anniversary to Radio City Music Hall, opened on this date in 1932. With my shapely legs, I should have been a Rockette.

And I can only assume that Mare's laughter at my last post is a defense mechanism--she is clearly jealous of my gams.

Happy anniversary to the Soviet Union, founded on this date in 1922. I believe they celebrated with this.

Happy anniversary to the Panama Canal, ceded by the United States to Panama on this date in 1999. What a party. Also, sorry, Brits--we won't be ceding the eastern seaboard back to you anytime soon.

Admit it--you want South Carolina. You can have it. Hell, we'll throw in West Virginia, too. Just our way of saying thanks.

Happy anniversary to the Julian calendar, introduced on this date in 45 B.C. Today also celebrates the introduction of the Donavan calendar, where every day is Don Day.

Happy anniversary to the founding of the American League on this date in 1901. Given that the average age of baseball fans keeps climbing, I assume there are still some diehard fans who were alive on this date.

You mean they haven't died of boredom?

I watch baseball sometimes (when the Reds are good, which they usually aren't), but it can be an exceedingly dull game.

Happy anniversary to the election of the inaugural class of players for the Baseball Hall of Fam--Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Christy Matthewson and Walter Johnson--on this date in 1936. Two baseball posts in two days? Must be a really slow news day.

Happy anniversary to the end of the Punic Wars, on this date in 146 BCE. Sadly, there is no end in sight to the Pubic Wars, which will always be fought so long as there are Republicans.
