What is the DOUBLE Historic Significance of the dates...
APRIL 14 & 15?
The 14th you worry About The Taxes You Owe?
And the 15th ...You better do it by Today?
However...I'm referring to TWO one time historic events.
Y'all talk among yerselves for awhile...
We'll be back in just a little while!
Mic. You rock my world.........
Right back at ya, Ginger Sister!!!
............
Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
One Autumn (Auburn hair/Hazel eyes)
&
One Celt (Fair/Blue eyes)
(Those are Ginger terms, y'all!
How 'bout you, Angel?
Any little Gingers?
We'll pause for awhile, so y'all can put on yer
Black Ginger IS rare!!
Read about it in the Urban Dictionary.
Red Locs?
(Synonym...from the Urban Dictionary.)
But we diverge...
Any history whiz know the DOUBLE significance of those two dates??
.....
Angel and I doing the cheering on
Whilst the audience breaks into rapturous
It is all very exciting....
It's a blessing & your "gift" makes us all a bit happier.
Wanna let us know the Double Historic Significance of April 14 & 15, Wallops?
The 14th of April 30 years ago is the last day that I wasn`t going to be a mum
The 15th ... 30 years ago, I become a mum for the 1st time
So... great reason for me to celebrate
Not sure what other reasons you celebrate it
Sounds plenty good enough reason to me, Wallops!...
PAR-TAY!!!
But, there are two events more widely known.
"Celebrate" might not be the appropriate word...for either event.
1865 (150 years ago this year BTW) -
Lincoln was shot on the night of April 14...
He died on the morming of April 15.
47 years later...
1912 -
The Titanic struck an iceberg on the night of April 14.
It sank on the morning of April 15.
A little known side story of the Titanic:
It was carrying a load of Mayonnaise ultimately bound for Mexico.
Mexicans hold an annual event commemorating the loss...
Sinko de Mayo.
Such sad things happen sometimes
I was going to google but got busy so didn`t get to check it out and I did not know those exact dates.
