Stick me in a big underground tomb in the desert instead, ‘kay? Archaeologists in Egypt have recently discovered a huge tomb near Cairo.
On this date in 1914, the Ford Motor Company gave its workers a pay raise. They went from a nine hour workday for $2.34 (that’s per day not per hour) to an eight hour day for $5.
The first color newsreel was released on this date in 1948. It was released by Warner Brothers-Pathe. and was filmed at the Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, California.
Much to my surprise, we have new episodes of NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles tonight.
Wrote about one page last night.

I hope I didn’t spoil anything about Dopplegangter. Sorry if I did. It was a good book! And thanks for the info on another release in the series in August!
Another tomb? COOL! Wonder when the Discovery Channel special on that one will be on? *G*
Have a great day!
