Lake Erie. Yeah. United States Navy Commander Olmer Perry his

(03:06):
Baptist minister named Reverend Jonathan Goldbi Now he was on
a mission in Yokiyama, Japan. And now he was there
telling him all about Jesus. He also invented the rickshaw. Yeah,

I guess somebody had to be first. Right over in
London a taxi driver named George Smith. He was the
first person wrestled for drunk driving. The twenty five year

(03:50):
old He was arrested after he drove his taxi into
a building. Now he told the truth. He said he
had been drinking some beer. Pled guilty. He was fined
twenty five shillings I'd be about seventeen dollars back then.
But he really didn't have a choice. How could he
deny it. His taxi was stuck on the side of
a building. Now, George, he wasn't a bad guy though,
I mean his taxi was electric, so at least he
cared about the environment. Now it won't be officially dedicated

(04:14):
until October thirty first, but it was today, in nineteen
thirteen that the Lincoln Highway opened up. It was the
first paved highway in the United States that went coast
to coast. Started in Times Square in New York City

two miles. No, it was nothing like the Interstate system up.
It was only two lanes and it meandered all over

the place. Nineteen forty five and Fruit of Colorado. Yeah,
farmer he went out to cut off the head of
his chicken for dinner. Well, after he decapitated the chicken,
it ran around like they do, so the farmer left.
When he came back, the chicken was still alive. So
he waited and waited, and he figured out that chicken
has survived his decapitation. So the farmer named the chicken
Magic Mike. Somehow, the way he had the angle on

(04:57):
the axe and everything, he was able to cut it
just right where he left the brain, but took off
the whole head. Now you could actually see down his throat.
