Warren Zevon still in our hearts

January 24 in history

1933 – "The 20th Amendment to the United States Constitution is ratified, changing the beginning and end of terms for all elected federal offices."

One of the few Constitutional provisions that aren't ignored.

1984 – "The first Apple Macintosh goes on sale."

I though I was eating them long before that.

Notable quotes

"An unalterable and unquestioned law of the musical world required that the German text of French operas sung by Swedish artists should be translated into Italian for the clearer understanding of English-speaking audiences." - Edith Wharton (January 24, 1862 - August 11, 1937)

"Any team can have a bad century." - Jack Brickhouse, Cubs sportscaster (January 24, 1916 – August 6, 1998)

Song of the Day

Warren Zevon would have been 69 today. Still in our hearts.
