1914: The first continental phone service between New York and San Francisco begins. I can talk to family in the 'Big Apple'

AND... The Cape Cod Canal opens; 162 miles of the world's largest manmade waterway w/o locks-been on the cruise thru there!

1030: THE BIG DAY imho! Olaf Haraldsson falls in battle at Stiklstad, clearing the way for England's greatest king, Canute. Made a saint for beheading so many pagans, Olaf becomes the patron saint of Norway-leading to..."St Olaf College (Lutheran) founded by Norwegian immigrant Bernt Julius Muus (practically a saint thereabouts

) in Northfield, Minnesota, in 1874. In 1973, AktungBBY graduates from St Olaf College and writes this post 984 years later

! Clearly the man (Olaf, not me) left his stamp on history; at least in the Faeros!?

1588: The English, under the banner of St George, defeat the Spanish Armada with ships named for and flags of every saint imaginable at Gravelines: hence this post is written in English-not Spanish

: Protestants 1; Catholics 0

In honor of the day; a Bloody Mary with a Hamm's chaser BBY
