July 6th
Sylvester Stallone was born on July 6th in 1946. Sly still looks good, but I shudder to think what he'll look like when all those muscles start to sag.
Louis Pasteur gave the first anti-rabies shot to a young boy on July 6th in 1885. Then, to see if the shot worked, the kid had to undergo a series of painful mad dog bites.
On July 6th in 1535 King Henry the 8th had Sir Thomas More beheaded because Sir Thomas refused to sanction Henry's marriage. Henry had a violent temper, and every time he lost his head so did somebody else.
The Father of the U.S. Navy, John Paul Jones, was born on July 6th in 1747. In 1899, the U.S. Navy spent a million dollars to move John Paul's body from under a Paris apartment house to a $2 million tomb at the U.S. Naval Academy. At the dedication, a U.S. Senator stood atop the tomb and uttered that famous phrase, "I have just begun to spend."
