Reminder

If you are a "non-responder or OpenID-er" which to me means I have no way of responding to a comment that you've left, please leave a way for me to get in touch with you, especially if you're participating in a blog give-away or if you are asking for information or links.
By leaving your email within your comment, I can find you. I realize that this is sometimes a scary thing to do with scams and all but if you disguise the email as say.....
me at yahoo dot com
this is the perfect way to hide from the unwanted eye. So please help me out if you are one of the non-responders.
Thank you, in advance.....Ravelly Rhonda!!

1898


  • In 1989 Cheerleading was founded at the University of Minnesota.
  • The U.S. battleship Maine sank prompting war with Spain.
  • The sci-fi novel War of the Worlds was  written by H.G. Wells.
  • Robert Allison was the first to purchase a commercially manufactured automobile at the Winton Motor Carriage Company in Cleveland, Ohio.
  • Potatoes were worth their weight in gold because of their vitamin C content. Miners actually traded gold for potatoes.


What does this have to do with anything??? It's just trivia but ......................

Edwin E., my granddad was born.
Though he has passed away many years ago, I will remember his voice, his pet name for me, Rhondee and all the wonderful life lessons he bestowed on me.

Happy Birthday Granddad!!!
