According to Wikipedia, today in 1958 the trademark Velcro was registered and Vice President Nixon's car was attacked by anti-American demonstrators in Caracas, Venezuela. According to BrainyHistory, Jordan and Iraq formed the Arab Federation on that day, too.
What's not in Wikipedia is that my sister was born on this day in 1958, as well. According to my abacus, that makes her 50 years old! Closer to 100 than she is to zero . . .
So happy birthday little Susie. And happy birthday to Stevie Wonder, Stephen Colbert, Harvey Keitel, Bea Arthur, Dennis Rodman and Andrea Klump (German terrorist)--none of whom are as awesome as my sister.
