What Do John Wesley, Henry VIII, Spaceballs and the Denver Broncos Have In Common? Me.

For no particular reason, I decided to see what famous events occurred and what famous people were born on June 28th in history. My findings were nothing short of shocking... June 28th is a really amazing day! In fact, it is probably the most historically important day of the year, just shy of December 25th.

First of all, there were many famous things that probably happened on June 28th, including:

The Magna Carta was most likely signed on June 28th, even though there is a certain breed of degenerate historians who say the actual date of signing is "unknown." As you probably know, the Magna Carta (which in latin means the Massive Cart) was a very important legal document that first placed restrictions on how many peasants a king could run over every hour in his pimped-out carriage.

The 4th of July probably occurred on June 28th, but John Hancock took a long time to finish his signature, and Sasha Fauntleroy of Virginia (who was a wealthy and influentional fashion designer of wigs and stockings for men) spent days in an unsuccessful fillibuster over whether the Declaration of Independence would seem less harsh if written on the flowery stationary his mum had given him for his birthday.

God's Creation of Man probably happened on June 28th or a Tuesday, which also makes today the birthday of all mankind.

Then of course, there are the things that definitely happened on June 28th:

Famous Birthdays: Kathy Bates (i.e., don't watch "About Schmidt"), Mel Brooks (may the Schwartz be with you!), John Cusack (who I see at Diedrich's all the time... I'll have to tell him), Mary Stuart Masterson (all the rage in the late 80's/early 90's), King Henry VIII (the one with all the wives, and the founder of the Church of England because he wanted to divorce one of them), Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Social Contract, French philosopher), Pope Paul IV (also known as John Paul the Guilty), Richard Rogers (of Rogers and Hammerstein musical-theater fame), John Wesley (if you follow the "new" calendar used after 1752, according to this article), and John Elway (of the Denver Broncos).

Famous Events: The tomato is proven to be non-poisonous, 1820 (thank God!), Raggedy Ann toy invented, 1917 (a doll my sister loved and I tortured...if only I knew!), President Cleveland officially approved "labor day," 1894 (you all owe me vacation time), and Helen Keller graduated from Radcliffe College (you go girl!).

And last but not least... God brought yours truly into this world.
