This Day in History

Or, as you would be more familiar with – Hari Ini Dalam Sejarah.

1810 – Independence for Chile. The country, not the hot red vegetable.
1934 – USSR admitted to League of Nations. Free vodka all around the Security Council.
1970 – Jimi Hendrix dies after choking on his own vomit. Obviously, not the highlight of his short career.
1971 – Lance Armstrong, the cyclist formerly known as Sheryl Crow’s boyfriend, is born.
1976 – Mao Zedong’s funeral takes place in Beijing.
2007 – Buddhist monks join anti-government protesters in Myanmar, starting what some call the Saffron Revolution. Hey wait, this was just last year.

And, oh yeah, it’s also my birthday! Heh!
