Tuesday 10/09 - Leif Erikson Day - JDubb - 10-09-2012 Why??? I don't know either...when do we celebrate JDubb Day, or LeNeve Day, or DBN Day... Leif Erikson Day is celebrated on October 9th of each year in honor of the Norse explorer who brought the first Europeans known to have set foot in North America. American Not Discovered by Columbus by Rasmus B. Anderson was published in 1874. This book helped popularize the now familiar idea that Vikings were the first Europeans in the New World. During his appearance at the Norse-American Centennial in 1925, President Calvin Coolidge gave recognition to Leif Erikson as the Discoverer of America due to research by Norwegian-American scholars such as Knut Gjerset and Ludvig Hektoen. In 1930, Wisconsin became the first U.S. state to officially adopt Leif Erikson Day as a state holiday, thanks in large part to efforts by Rasmus Anderson. A year later, the state of Minnesota followd suit. By 1956, Leif Erikson Day had been made an official observance in seven states (Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Illinois, Colorado, Washington, and California) and one Canadian province (Saskatchewan). http://www.nationalwhateverday.com/ai1ec_event/leif-erikson-day/?instance_id=1110 Re: Tuesday 10/09 - Leif Erikson Day - JDubb - 10-09-2012 And it's play off season...

Re: Tuesday 10/09 - Leif Erikson Day - MattInMinnesota - 10-09-2012 Anyone checking out Hulk Hogans interview on Howard? I can't help but feel bad for what he's gone through and even though he's probably got only himself to blame... Sounds like a broken dude! |
