The History of the Can O' History

 


I always found history topics to be hard but this turned out to be a good series. Because they are actually interesting. Most of my posts aren't all that interesting. They lack a filmic nutrition, as our friend spaced99 would say. 

Short history topics I found without much meat to them I would put in the Can O' History, which was the little garbage can time capsule Larry, Darryl, and Darryl had on Newhart. One day I was at a friend of mine's house and he had a little fire pit outside and sitting next to it was that little metal garbage can. I freaked out and said, "Where did you get that garbage can?!" "Why?", he suspiciously asked.  "That's the Can O' History!"

Can O' History topics include: Pole Sitting, Plate Spinning, Jo-Jo the Dog-Faced Boy, The Shootout on Juneau Wharf, Napoleon Attacked by Rabbits, S.S. America: The Ship of Gold, T.E. Lawrence and Carchemish, U.S. Camel Corps, Locusta the Poisoner, What is a Clipjoint?, Ascent of the Eiger, Bal de Ardents, Great New England Hurricane of 1938, Codex Gigas - The Devil's Bible, Republic of West Florida.
