Description


It has been said that providing a fact humorously helps increase the chance of you remembering the facts. Here I offer you a platter of historical events, hopefully in a humorous way, so that you may either chuckle or say it's ridiculous, boring, or otherwise. I'm willing to bet that you're going to remember some of these humorous facts. Life is like a train. We can watch the trains go by, or we can get on the train and ride it into the future! So come along with me on this ride through history!
