Today is the anniversary of the Federalist Papers...the first of the 85 essays promoting adoption of the Constitution appeared on this day in 1787 in New York newspapers.
It's also Teddy Roosevelt's birthday, who was born in 1858.
Today is the 99th anniversary of the New York subway system...in 1904 a line running from City Hall to West 145th Street opened up.
And most importantly...John Cleese was born in 1939.
