Happy Birthday, Old Guy!

Happy Birthday to my Dad!!! He's turning super old this year and probably doesn't want everyone to know how old he is today. So I won't say anything. I'll just share some super cool facts from the year 1953. No coincidence.
  • Life Expectancy in the United States: 68.8 years
  • United States Population: 160,184,192
  • World Population: 2.681 billion
  • June 19: Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed after their conviction for espionage
  • My Dad was born in the beautiful state of Iowa
  • First successful open heart surgery was performed in Philadelphia
  • Dwight D. Eisenhower was President and Richard Nixon was Vice President in 1953
  • Playboy magazine hits newsstands with Marilyn Monroe on the cover
  • Cost of a first class postage stamp was 3 cents
  • Bazooka Joe first appears on Topps comics

Happy birthday to the best Scouter in the whole world! I love you!

Love Anna
