One year has come and gone and what a year it has been. On March 28, 2008 a brilliant man sat down and devoted himself to writing a witty blog everyday and personally I didn't think it would last over 2 months but hey, I guess I was wrong. Big Dave and Company has been my Saturday morning entertainment, well...since I started the ol' day shifts. Big Dave does an excellent job keeping everything short, sweet, and to the point and always has a good joke for you. And to keep the Big Dave tradition going I decided I would go back and figure out what amazing events have happened on said day in history.
Out of all the years and shit that has happened, I myself don't get into politics, and don't care that on
March 28, 1885 the Salvation Army was officially organized in the U.S, or that in 1908 automobile owners lobbied in the U.S. Congress supporting a bill that called for vehicle licensing and federal registration, because all that did is piss me off when my birthday came around and made you need to go pay freaking money to drive your '84 Honda around. But what makes everyone happy is that in 1797 Nathaniel Briggs patented a washing machine. If it wasn't for this guy we'd be going down to the stream to wash our dirty undies on the washboard. So that, my Briggs, thanks for
making things a lot easier, because I don't want to start the laundry or put it in the dryer, let along scrub the shit by hand. And also, thank you Big Dave for giving us something to do while we sit in front of our computers being bored and lazy. Oh, and guess what. It's Julia Styles' birthday as well.
