And back, by popular demand...thank you Arkham Assylum...Fractured History!
1091 Floris II de Vette becomes Count of Holland. He got his start on Sesame Street counting cookies and look at him now with those windmill shaped Voortmans!

| Not good for eating...just for counting! |
1119 Charles the Good becomes Count of Flanders. He got his start on Sesame...I mean can anyone named Charles really be that good? Look at Charles Ingalls. He was always running around punching someone with his shirt off. Made so many ladies get the vapors!

| Hello ladies...grab yer smelling salts! |
1527 Pánfilo de Narváez departs Spain to explore Florida with 5 ships and 600 men, by 1536 only 4 are still alive. This is strange because up until then zero ships had been alive. Sounds like someone found the fountain of sloop!

1583 Brabant: Duke of Parma beats French mercenaries. Dukes Mayonaise goes well with parmesan and French's mustard on a variety of different sandwiches.
1734 French troops occupy Philipsburg at Rhine. They force their prisoners to sing "Je suis une Rinestone Vacher."
1837 Charles Goodyear obtains his first rubber patent. A condom joke seemed to easy here...almost dubious. It would be safer to have some sort of protection before making those kind of innuendos.
1944 Iceland dissolves its union with Denmark and declares itself a Republic. Denmark tells them that "You can't just say that you are a republic. That doesn't mean anything." Iceland replies, "We didn't say it, we declared it."
Thanks amigos. We will be back in the future, barring any legal action!
Very educational.
