It was a Friday
I think Abe Lincoln was also born on February 5th (though probably not in 1988...probably)
According to Wikipedia;
...Earthquake in Pompeii (0062)...Hermitage Museum in St. Petersberg opens to the public (1852)...The U.S. and the U.K. sign a treaty for the Panama Canal (1900)...Worlds first synthetic plastic is created, Bakelite (1909)...The Tybee Bomb (a hydrogen bomb) is lost by the U.S. Air Force off the coast of Savannah GA(1958)...Astronauts land on the Moon as part of the mission, Apollo 14 (1971)...Manuel Noriega is indicted on drug smuggling and money laundering charges.(1988 and, purple because I was born that very day)...
After checking I was wrong: it wasn't Abe who was born on the fifth but his mother, Nancy Hanks who was born in 1784 (204 years before me).
...What the fuck is National Weather-Persons Day?!
