The first moving picture patent.

The Sino-Japanese war.

When New York divided into the five boroughs.

Anyone else?

I remember those tight whalebone corsets that used to give me fainting fits. And riding side saddle.

I remember the day Ma came through the back 40 to tell us JQ Adams had been elected president. We were all pretty happy because we thought he'd do better than his daddy had done when he was president--and we didn't give a hoot about those charges of stealin' the job.

It just goes to show, doesn't it?

Well my parents died and I was left to a life of poverty and misery eating porridge and gruel as I slaved away in the workhouse. I was forced to leave after asking for more 'gruel'. Working in an undertakers. Discovering the theory to evolution and origin of the species through natural selection, lost all my earnings from that on gin and knife fights.

Sweeping out them blooming chimneys then having to make a living by picking a pocket or two and selling kercheifs and the like, a right gutter snipe I was, not much better than the mud larks, governor. But we had her majesty ruling over us. god bless her, and most of the world so mustn't grumble. Then the internet came and ruined it all.
