The date is set!

It's June 19, 2010. And I gotta say, a lot of great things have happened on June 19:
  • 1846 - the first baseball game under recognizable rules is played in Hoboken, New Jersey.
  • 1910 - the first Father's Day is celebrated in Spokane, Washington.
  • 1914 - a radiotelegraphic link is established between Germany and the United States. German Emperor Wilhelm II and President Woodrow Wilson exchange telegrams.
  • 1978 - The Garfield comic strip debuts.
It's also the birthday of Lou Gehrig, Lester Flatt and Paula Abdul.

A good day indeed!
