Upsy Daisy, It's Still Tuesday OT

 


Already Wednesday in my neck of the woods.  I may even be asleep.

June 8th was Upsy Daisy Day, Best Friends Day, World Brain Tumor Day, World Oceans Day, Jelly-Filled Doughnut Day, and Name Your Poison Day. Also Tim Berners-Lee's birthday.

Edward the Confessor became king of England this day in 1042. Vikings attacked Lindisfarne in 793. You don't want hecklers like that.



8 June 1968. James Earl Ray, wanted for the murder of Martin Luther King, was arrested at Heathrow Airport, London, using a Canadian passport with the false name of Ramon George Sneyd. He was extradited to Tennessee, USA and charged and later convicted of King’s murder.
