Non-musical history for today: 1969 – Senator Ted Kennedy crashed his car into a tidal pond at Chappaquiddick Island, Massachusetts, killing his passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne. In 1970, a judicial inquest concluded that Kennedy and Kopechne had not intended to take the ferry and that Kennedy had intentionally turned toward the bridge, operating his vehicle negligently, if not recklessly, and at too high a speed for the hazard which the bridge posed in the dark. The judge stopped short of recommending

Non-musical history for today: 1935 – The world's first parking meter was installed in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Non-musical history for today: 1776 – Church bells (possibly including the Liberty Bell) rang after John Nixon delivered the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence of the United States. At first, I was like, how was it the "Liberty" bell if we just proclaimed independence? It turns out that the bell was commissioned in 1752 and originally was hung in the steeple of what is now known as Independence Hall. But, did you know this is the second bell?

Non-musical history for today: 1917 – Arabian troops led by T. E. Lawrence ("Lawrence of Arabia") and Auda ibu Tayi captured Aqaba from the Ottoman Empire during the Arab Revolt. I'm sure you knew this, but yes, Lawrence of Arabia wasn't just a fantastic film (and it was), it was basically an (embellished) account and biopic. See the film if you haven't. The cinematography was out of this world. The score. Peter O'Toole. The whole thing. See it. Then tell me your thoughts on it. Music history,

Non-musical history for today: 1698 – Thomas Savery patented the first steam engine. Now, if you're a fan of the Schoolhouse Rock series, you may be saying that Robert Fulton invented it.
