From National Geographic, March 1924 (Vol. XLV, no. 3). I thought it was funny.
In 1836, Texas declared its independence from Mexico.
Bedrich Smetana was born on this day in 1824. Kurt Weill followed in 1900, with Dr. Seuss four years later.
In 1975 six schoolgirls, all aged 12, walking on Llanaber beach, near the northern end of the promenade in Barmouth, Wales, saw something strange about 200 yards ahead of them. It was a ten-foot-long black monster with a long tail, long neck, huge green eyes like saucers and feet with three pointed protruding nails. It walked towards the sea and entered the water. The girls fled in terror. Their teacher, Colin Palmer, said that various adults had admitted seeing the creature. (Fortean Times)
