In 1493, Columbus sailed the deep blue sea

[captainsblog]

That quote was used, as was the more widely-known and correct one, in an episode of a television show that debuted in the mid-1960s, back when Indigenous Peoples Oppression Columbus Day was always observed on this day. (Free internet cookie to anyone who can identify both the show and the characters who argued about which was right.)

Another famous debut in the mid-1960s, on this very day in fact, was of a woman who grew up into one of the best of Friends one can have here.

From her family stories, to her always amazing photos, to her music collection, there's not just something for everyone there, but an awful lot I find touching.

So whichever year his quest began,
My happiest birthday wish to Nan:)
