Like National Pancake Day.

The completion of the second single expedition circumnavigation of the planet by Sir Francis Drake in 1580[footnote]I’m sure that ended well for everybody involved.[/footnote].

And some notable births, including folk hero orchardist Johnny Appleseed[footnote]Those weren’t wholesome eatin’ apples.[/footnote], physiologist Ivan Pavlov[footnote]You rang?[/footnote], poet T.S. Eliot[footnote]Liked cats.[/footnote], and some other people too small to mention[footnote]Who, me?[/footnote] because who cares when Serena Williams[footnote]Living god.[/footnote] walks among us?

Happy posting.
