1878: France's S.S. Byzantine sinks...
It was no Titanic though - only 210 Frenchies bit the big one there! Alas, Belphégor, Gaston Lagaffe, Spirou, Benoît Brisefer and Inspector Clouseau were not among those...
Yes - the French always suck in comparison to the British... and... No - Xica & Chica have no professional jealousy thing going on here in relation to those twits named by Xica... capisce?
1912: Piltdown Man, fake missing link, 'discovered' in England.
Well... we gave it a good shot... but we were caught red-handed in a LIE...
Does that mean tourism will not get a boost out my wearing this crap?
1970: Nuclear testing in southern Nevada throws a radioactive cloud of dust into the skies over... Wyoming!
Forecast: highly cloudy...
... but no rain. Be VERY thankful for that... fool!
