[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

Wow, I had to search to find any reference at all to Lincoln on April 14 and the 144th anniversary of his death.
Yes, it’s that time again: Hell Week! This week in history, the death of Lincoln, the death of FDR, the sinking of the Titanic, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, Tax Day...and capping off the week, Hitler’s birthday.
Did I miss anything?

Handel died 250 years ago today as well.

You forgot Clemenza’s birthday, which I share with Der Fuhrer.
