Tomorrow...Part II

...which I guess is actually Today!..You know,I really didn't think this whole title thing through.
I guess I was all twitterpated about all the marvelous things that happened;..

***Today In History!***

In many parts of Germany,and Austria,today is "Saint Nicholas'" day.
Traditionally,Sinter Klaus leaves gifts in the stockings of all the good little boys and girls..
This is cool on so many levels!..Also..

1768- The first edition of the Encyclopedia Brittanica was published.

1865- The 13th amendment to The Constitution was ratified,..banning slavery.

1933- U.S. federal judge,John Woolsey,rules that the James Joyce novel,Ulysses,is not obscene.

2006- Photos taken by the Mars Global Explorer suggest the presence of liquid water.

2007..11:59 A.M.- Sling's first and only Grandson was delivered,by Cesarean section,this very morn!!..Oh yes!
At an imposing 20 inches tall,and a hefty 8 lbs. 5 oz,little Jackson burst upon an unsuspecting world...He,along with my 3 lovely Granddaughters,have pretty much guaranteed my immortality...thank you Lord.
Mom and Slinglet are doing just fine!

I'm pretty sure he has my...Moustasche.

My daughter did me proud by carrying on that little bit o' tradition!
