1951

I picked up a penny today before I headed off to the Cyclones game. They won 12-6.
My total is now $19.51. Well, what happened back in 1951:


There was a pretty severe flood in Kansas.

Who can forget Pär Fabian Lagerkvist?

Humphrey Bogart won Best Actor in "The African Queen". That's a pretty funny movie.

here's what the NYC subway system looked like in 1951:

And if you went to Washington High in Fergus Falls, you better head down to your 56th reunion later this week! Call Becky (715-735-7878) if you're still making arrangements.
