3-14 ... 60 Years Ago Today ... (and a little something for now!)

60 YEARS AGO TODAY:

3/14/64 – Jack Ruby is found guilty of murdering Lee Harvey Oswald and sentenced to death. 

That conviction will later be overturned when it is ruled that Ruby did not receive a fair trial ... and Ruby will be awarded a new trial – however, he will die in prison before that trial ever takes place – meaning that technically, by the letter of the law, he died an innocent man, even though millions of viewers around the globe watched him gun down Oswald on live TV.

Till the very end, he maintained that he had no ties or connections to Lee Harvey Oswald ... and those who knew him best insist that in Ruby's own mind, he believed was the hero who avenged the murder of our President ... and should have been perceived that way.

And how about some Pi for breakfast???

Oh wait, that's wrong ...

This from Chuck Buell ...

Time now for a Blatant Excuse for a Chuck Buell Minute Medley!

 

Why?!

 

Because, as all Forgotten Hits Mathematicians know, today, March 14, is “National Pi Day!”

 


So, here you are!
