Today is a very momentous day in history. Here are just a few of the events that made an impact on human history on this day:1881 President James Garfield died of a gunshot wound inflicted by a disappointed office seeker the previous July 2.
1934 Bruno Hauptmann was arrested for the Lindbergh baby kidnap-murder.
1955 President Juan Peron of Argentina was deposed and exiled after a military coup.
1957 The United States conducted its first underground nuclear test in the Nevada desert.
1958 I was born at an Air Force base hospital in Tachikawa, Japan.
A few years ago, September 19 was designated International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Shiver me timbers, me hearties! Speak like a scurvy knave to celebrate me special day today! Yar! Why, there even be an official song fer this day.
