THURRRSSSSDAY

Today’s holiday is V. C. Bird Day in Antigua and Barbuda marking the birthday of Sir Vere Cornwall Bird. Sir Vere Cornwall Bird was born on December 9th 1910. He became the first prime minister of Antigua and is considered the father of the nation. He became the first recipient of the Order of the National Hero in 1994.

I love the smell of socially acceptable chemical dependence in the morning.

Today is the birthday, in 1941, of Sammy Strain. He has the distinction of being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice – once with Little Anthony and the Imperials and once with the O’Jays.
