chronology: A curious turn of events.

During the dispute between North and South Vietnam nations began taking sides in who they supported. Americans sided with South Vietnam, insisting that the people of that District had a right to self determination. The Czechoslovakia Republic sided with North Vietnam. Both were Communist countries and the bigger Vietnam was the better.

Well this eventually led to tens of thousands of Germans with a Meth Amphetamines addiction, Huh?

The Czech republic shipped in high quality explosives to North Vietnam. That did not come cheap. AK47s were also on the aircraft flying into Hanoi from Eastern Europe. But hey, Communist give each other credit as well. And pretty soon Hanoi was in hock to Prague.

Now fast forward to the end of the Soviet Union. The Czech republic gets it's Freedom and has an highly educated workforce. But still needs many unskilled workers. Hanoi sees allowing thousands of Vietnamese to go and work in The Czech republic as a way of paying off it's debt's.

Meth Amphetamines have a long history in Czechoslovakia. Prague produces the highest quality meth in the world. It ain't no Biker Crank. Vietnamese folk's are outstanding small market traders who can turn their hand's to selling virtually anything. And as crystal meth is nominally illegal in Czech lands Vietnamese traders soon became the Alpha males in selling the stuff. German tourists to Czech cities often go there for sex and drugs. Vietnamese traders can provide the drugs, Russian gangsters can provide the females. This has
led to thousands of Germans with a serious drug problem.

Had Czechoslovakia stayed out of the Vietnam dispute life would have been much different for many Germans who are in drug rehab today. One German police chief commented on the German folks addicted to Meth. He said they look awful, rotten teeth and patchy skin.

chronology: Meet the original Agent Scully, Pamilla Anderson.

Fox originally wanted to cast Pamilla Anderson as Agent Scully in the X Files. At the time TV was full of Baywatch Babes and Ms Anderson was seen as the logical choice.
But most likely the idea of portraying FBI ladies in this way was just too much for Producers to accept. Gillian Anderson projected the image of FBI ladies more acceptable to Producers. Intellectual, engaging and still feminine.

Sometimes being a beautiful woman who radiates sexuality can limit the roles offered to actresses.

chronology: A Canadian murder mystery.

This date in 1868 Thomas Macgee is assassinated in Canada.
Canadians will probably never know the real story of just who shot Mr Macgee or why. The driving elements of the murder were all rooted in the Irish community in the United States and Canada. But the emotional driving forces originated in Ireland with the potato famine.
Irish folks became passionate with indignation against Great Britain insisting Britain had deliberately killed millions of Irish people in the 1850 disaster. Political passions ran high, and in the centre of many of the arguments was Tom Macgee. For Great Britain Mr Macgee was seen as a virtual Knight in shining armour who gave Great Britain credibility in North America when Britain's reputation was just about zero amongst millions of Irish folks in America and Canada. For many Irish nationalists Mr Macgee was a sell out traitor to the British Empire.

In the United States the Civil War had just ended but thousands of Irish Nationalists were preparing an invasion of Canadian Provinces to overthrow the hated British Government rule there. Mr Macgee spoke out against the Irish Republican attempts to attack Britain, he also slammed United States culture at the time.

How seriously Washington DC took the preparation by Irish militias to invade Canadian Provinces we will never know. Most of the Irishmen preparing to attack British Empire Fourts were Union Veterans of the Civil War, and they had stolen hundreds of rifles and ammunition from left over U.S. supplies.

It was against this background that Mr Macgee was shot in the head as he stepped into his boarding house in the early hours of the morning. . A man was quickly arrested and charged with his murder. Shortly afterwards he was found guilty and hanged. He died insisting he was innocent, this at a time when most Irish activists willingly died openly confessing they were dieing for Ireland.

So just who did kill Mr Macgee? It could well have been the man found guilty. It is beyond questioning that the murder was part of Ireland's traumatic history of the time. But as Mr Macgee had changed side's in the great dispute of Ireland's independence who can say who hated him most.

For Canadian's tho his murder is a timeless who done it. Shortly after Mr Macgee was shot a number of invasion attempts of Canada took place by Irish Republican militia armies based in the United States, but they were unsuccessful in their efforts. United States Army Officials later visited the militia home States and ordered them to be disarmed.

Blackshoes: Walter took his wife Ethel to the state fair every year, and every time he would say to her, “Ethel, you know that I’d love to go for a ride in that helicopter.” But Ethel would always reply, “I know that Walter, but that helicopter ride is 50 dollars and 50 dollars is 50 dollars.”
Finally, they went to the fair, and Walter said to Ethel, “Ethel, you know I’m 87 years old now. If I don’t ride that helicopter this year, I may never get another chance.” Once again Ethel replied, “Walter, you know that helicopter is 50 dollars and 50 dollars is 50 dollars.”
This time the helicopter pilot overheard the couple’s conversation and said, “Listen folks, I’ll make a deal with you. I’ll take both of you for a ride; if you can both stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word I won’t charge you! But if you say just one word, it’s 50 dollars.”
Walter and Ethel agreed and up they went in the helicopter. The pilot performed all kinds of fancy moves and tricks, but not a word was said by either Walter or Ethel.
The pilot did his death-defying tricks over and over again, but still there wasn’t so much as one word said.
When they finally landed, the pilot turned to Walter and said, “Wow! I’ve got to hand it to you. I did everything I could to get you to scream or shout out, but you didn’t. I’m really impressed!”
Walter replied, “Well to be honest I almost said something when Ethel fell out but, you know, 50 dollars is 50 dollars!”

chronology: COBOL first suggested this date 69 years ago.

COBOL is a universal computer language used for programming computers. It was crucial in speeding up and making software progams more practical to develop.

Before COBOL whenever a computer was built in the 1950s the computer would have it's own programming language. It cost a fortune just to write the language for all the programmes to run that computer. And the programmes would only run on that computer, other computers had their own languages. So expert's, led by American programmer's, developed COBOL to slash costs and make for swifter programming.

chronology: Wage cuts in the planning after Corona incident.

Around the world business is looking to trim wages for all staff from management to production line workers. Most likely around 10pc is set to be trimmed from peoples wages.

Virtually all mainstream economists are insisting that such wage gauging will deepen and lengthen the economic slow down, not help the recovery. It is economics 101, take away peoples ability to spend money and that hits everyone from Walmart to Honda. If people can shopping in Walmart that helps everyone from factory workers to farmers. Leave them with no money to spend and that just hits everyone in the economy.

Tens of millions of people around the world are expected to loose their jobs because of the Corona virus, and thousands of businesses are expected to close permanently. Without Government assistance a lot of talented workers and businesses will be lost for a long time.

Zanjan: Shoes, there wont be any traditional wars because of the deep recession - soldiers are self-isolating and due to staff cuts, the wait to get bullets from China is at least 6 months. Ok, I say that tongue in cheek but you'll soon realize the unprecedented dramatic effect it will have.

This does precipitate a global calamity that triggers a lot of people to seek God in new ways. They will awaken in groups all over the world.

chronology: This Date in 1940 Mr Quisling takes power in Norway as German Forces occupy the country.

Mr Quisling is probably one histories best known politicians, or at least his name is. He is also one of the most misunderstood. Most folks believe he opened Norways defences so to speak, so German Troops could role in and he could be their puppet leader. In fact he had nothing to do with the invasion. Without permission from German Authorities he took control of the Norwegian Government and made himself the National Leader. But German Authorities in Norway saw he had practically popular support and allowed the Norwegian Government to remove him. But for Norwegian politicians the prospect of leading the country through the occupation was very fateful, so a few days after being removed, Mr Quisling was back in Office.

He was a brilliant, talented, hard working man with a mystical view of the world. But for all his intellect he did not see how being ruler of a country under occupation would land him eventually in the Dock, and then in front of a firing squad.
While he himself was a moral, friendly man who claimed to be deeply in love with the Norwegian people, in the back streets of Oslo, and in the Port Cities, men were working to keep the Norwegian Resistance in Check. Men who had hoped collaborating with the German Rulers would give then power and wealth. Murdering and torturing fellow Norwegians was their everyday work. And by default, Mr Quisling would be dragged down with them. After the War ended and Norway regained her freedom, Norwegians were in no mood to forgive and forget.

chronology: This date in 1998 The Northern Ireland Peace Agreement is signed.

The Agreement is credited to the tireless enthusiasm of President Bill Clinton of the USA. Peace talks in Ireland had been deadlocked for decades with no prospect of change. President Clinton was concerned about the suppressed living standards and loss of life in Northern Ireland and began taking an active and public interest in the dispute. This was against the advice of the Department of State who advised him to have no official involvement in the dispute in Ireland. But as a BBC commentator would observe 'without the tireless enthusiasm and energy of Bill Clinton there would probably have never been an agreement in Ireland' .

The Agreement saw the Irish Government officially recognise Ulster as part of Great Britain, and saw the British Government bind itself to a commitment of returning Ulster to Irish sovereignty should the majority of people in Ireland and Ulster desire such.

Ireland had never agreed to Ulster remaining part of Great Britain after Ireland left the UK. Dublin insisted Belfast Authorities had no legal right to sign such an agreement with London. Ulster had considered leaving Great Britain at the time to be an economic disaster.

chronology: This date in 1961 Wherna Von Braun is woken up by a phone call early in the morning. The caller told him the Soviet Union had just completed the first ever manned space flight. Mr Von Braun hurried to speak with colleagues about the claim. United States military staff checked their radar and radio records from the time of the alleged flight but could find nothing recorded. U.S. Air Defence Staff later mentioned that they had found data that could have indicated a Russian rocket had taken off at the time of Gagarin's flight. But virtually all of the American defense establishment had missed the take off and landing of Uri Gagarin's history making flight.

It seems even Russian space flight staff had missed the flight. As they sat waiting for take off of the rocket which had been delayed someone said that they had heard Uri speaking from earth orbit. As far as we knew his rocket was still on the ground, said one staff member decades later. It must have taken off without us being used.

chronology: Yikes.

Opened in 1932 the Empire State Building became an American National Icon. A few year's later Movie goers around the world thrilled and cried as King Kong battled his sad final last stand at the top of New York's greatest building. But today many visitors to the Empire State Building have a more personal and close up dramatic experience.

In 1947 a woman jumped to her death from the 87th floor observation deck. She crunched in the top of a limo when she hit ground level. And ever since she has been jumping over and over again.

The woman has been seen stood near the barrier on the Deck, then to the shock of those watching, over she goes. Tumbling hundreds of feet to the ground. Some people have watched her decent from her jump off point.

She is of course a ghost. Many people have reported seeing her jump, a few spoke to her before she turned away and leapt to her appointment with death.

Creepy. Such apparitions are seen all over the world, and even in the mighty Empire State.

chronology: This date in 1865 the world is stunned by the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. Across Europe Old Abe was seen as the hero who freed slaves and was a friend of the working man. In the United States the American people are plunged into a period of national mourning.

It is still unclear just why John Wilkes Booth shot the President. Some American historians believe Booth had been on a mission to assassinate The President before the war ended, he just never halted his mission. The Confederate States had no part in Lincoln's murder, it was the work of a rogue Agent.

Many historians agree that Booth actually escaped justice and disappeared after the murder of the President. The man killed in the barn was definitely not Booth according to U.S.Army Officers who inspected the body. But other Army Officials disagreed and Booth was declared dead.
