OY!!!

First of all..check out my myspace: www.myspace.com/greenrw
I uploaded some old photo's

I'm in CVS today getting some odds and ends and i'm at the checkout and the two girls behind the counter neither of which could be over 21 are talking about movies.
I'm a horror movie fan so I chimed in ....."that sounds familiar...what movie are you talking about?"...
and her reply:

"I can't remember but it's some classic horror movie from 1989"



I ... really have nothing more to say ... I'm going to go pick out a burial plot!

Netfilx & Wikipedia

So I'm cruising around Netflix...the absolute best investment i've ever made...at least when compared to the amount of money i've spent on DVD's in the past.

They have this great little feature...Watch INSTANTLY....
For those not "in the know" Instant gratification is fabulous and of course, one of my downfalls (shhh don't tell my sponsor)..anyway
So I decide, in lieu of work...to watch one of the 200 videos that are in my queue (only 20 are available for watching instantly). one of the videos in my queue is called Festival Express. I am not a 60's & 70's music buff, but i do get some enjoyment from Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead. So i'm watching what I could only perceive to be as Canada's version of Woodstock...absolute mayhem...craziness and just before it all starts the date flashes across the screen June 27th, 1970
OH MY GOD!!!!
My mother was pushing me out while all this was going on...of course she was safe and sound in what at the time was called Nassau Hospital.
Regardless...It's a pretty interesting documentary..and some great impromptu music by the greats of the time!!!

Anyway...other things of significance on that date:

• 1358 - the Republic of Dubrovnik was founded (coincidentally I am part Croatian hmmmmm???)
• 1893 - The New York Stock Exchange crashed!! (I'm sure it was nothing compared to those of late!!!)
• 1966 - Dark Shadows premiered on TV.
• 1967 - The First ATM was installed in London.
• 1969 - The Stonewall Riot's!!! (it was actually June 28 at about 1:30 am...regardless...coincidence??? hmmmm!!!??).
• 1970 - While I was being pushed from the womb...so was Jim Edmonds...who is he you ask??? he is a baseball player for the San Diego Pardres and carries as one of his nicknames.."Jimmy Baseball"
  

I realize all this is probably very boring to you, the reader, however the whole point to this is to go check out Wikipedia! In my research about June 27th, I found that there are great things in Wikipedia.
I LOVE WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!

Here's the link to June 27 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_27 simply change the date in the address bar to suit your needs :)
Enjoy!!!!!
