September 11th Now & Then

Henry Hudson discovered the Hudson River on this date in 1609. What's so amazing is that millions of Native Americans had never discovered the Hudson River during all those centuries they were washing their buffaloes in it.

"The Carol Burnett Show" premiered on CBS-TV on this day in 1967. It was embarrassing for a while. Every week Tarzan kept showing up trying to get Carol to go swinging with him.

On this day in 1723 Dr. Daniel Turner became the first American physician to receive and honorary doctoral degree. An honorary doctor is not the same as a real doctor. An honorary doctor cannot collect a fee for dispensing incorrect medical advice -- a real doctor can.

Anthony Perkins died on this day in 1992. He was famous for his movie portrayal of Norman Bates, who dressed up like his mother and murdered people -- sort of a cross between Jack the Ripper and Dame Edna.
