Seein as how our resident fluff ball, who was attacked by a lib eviro wacko who thought he was wearing fur, is detained for the illegal insertion of a "stop the murdering" sign into an unwilling participant, I figured I would throw some history out there. Kind of as a reward for his actions.

So here you go...


1804 Lt. Stephen Decatur led a successful raid into Tripoli harbor to burn the U.S. Navy frigate Philadelphia, which had fallen into the hands of pirates.

1862 Some 14,000 Confederate soldiers surrendered at Fort Donelson, Tenn., to Union forces led by Gen. Ulysses S. Grant.

1868 The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks was organized in New York City.

1918 Lithuania proclaimed its independence.

1937 Wallace H. Carothers, a research chemist for Du Pont, received a patent for nylon.

1945 American troops landed on the island of Corregidor in the Philippines during World War II.

1948 NBC-TV aired its first nightly newscast, "The Camel Newsreel Theatre," which consisted of Fox Movietone newsreels.

1959 Fidel Castro became premier of Cuba a month after the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista.

1968 The nation's first 911 emergency telephone system was inaugurated in Haleyville, Ala.

2002 The operator of a crematory in Noble, Ga., was arrested after dozens of decomposing corpses were found stacked in storage sheds and scattered around the building and surrounding woods.

2005 The Kyoto global warming pact, which the U.S. never ratified, went into effect.

2005 The NHL canceled what was left of its season after a round of last-gasp negotiations failed to resolve differences over a salary cap - the issue that led to a lockout.

2009 A 200-pound chimpanzee went berserk in Stamford, Conn., severely mauling its owner's friend before being shot dead by police.

Evening all.

Been some what of a frustrating and disappointing day, was hoping to hear some good news about financing for a house, while the news I did get wasnt bad, it wasnt the good news I was hoping for.

On the bright side, I had found a used set of Husky liners that fit my Durango, all 3 rows plus the cargo liner for $100, on craigslist.

Those came in today so I swept out my Durango and put those in.
