Thrilling Thursday
On February 23rd in 1985 Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight threw a metal folding chair across the court during a game. He was so ashamed, to punish himself he's still wearing the same sweater.
On February 23rd in 1505 Christopher Columbus was granted a license to ride a mule in Spain. First, of course, he had to complete a course in mule education for his beginner's license, so he could ride a mule when accompanied by a licensed mule rider. Until he passed his mule test.

The annual Cowtown Marathon is this weekend at the stockyards in Fort Worth. Thousands of sweaty Texans will run the stockyard course, amid thousands of cows, goats, sheep, and pigs. Even those who don't attend can face Fort Worth and experience the aroma.
