Neat web site

| | Comments (0)

Here's a site I found a year or two ago. I browsed for a couple of hours, which is unusual for me. I'd like to go back sometime when I have more time. It's the History Channel's famous speeches page. Ever wonder how Richard Nixon got out of his first corruption charges? You can hear the "Checkers" speech here. Ever hear about the great speech that McArthur gave when he came back from Korea? It's all here. How about Albert Einstein, which deplored the use of atomic bombs against Japan? You can hear him in his own words. Paul McCartney in 1969 finally came out and told people "I'm alive and living in Scotland". It's a neat page for history buffs.

If you've read this far, you should follow me on twitter here.
