What Are They Looking At
Navy CPO Graham Jackson plays "Goin' Home" with tears streaming down his face as he watches President Franklin D. Roosevelt's body carried from the Warm Springs Foundation where he died suddenly on April 12, 1945.

Americans watch a public execution in Kentucky in 1936.
If you own a The Who shirt, I surely hope you know who Keith Moon is..

Moon once attached all the furniture in a hotel room to the ceiling. He was, of course, promptly thrown out

Moon broke into an airplane cockpit and began drumming on the crew's equipment, stopping only because he was dragged away by security.

After a hotel manager complained about the "noise" Moon was making while playing some of his band's tapes, Moon blew up the hotel bathroom with dynamite. He then turned to the manager and said, "That, my friend, is noise." Then he pressed the play button on his cassette player, and added. "This, on the other hand, is the Who."

Moon once showed up to a band meeting not by entering through the door, but by crashing through the ceiling of the dressing room.

Pete Townshend: "Keith would say things like, 'I'll dress as Joseph Goebbels, someone else can dress as Hitler and we're go to a Jewish restaurant."

Birdman Suit, 1955

Oh how I wanted to be Whinny Cooper. All I wanted was to have a boy love me as much as Kevin loved Whinny Cooper. I watched the Wonder Years religiously with my mom when I was younger.

I remember my 8th grade winter break and i checked out the first season of My So Called Life not even really knowing how iconic this show was. I finished the season in one day and almost cried the next day at the library when i was told it was canceled after one season.
I came home early about two Fridays ago just in time to catch the beginning of a Freaks and Geeks marathon of all sixteen episodes. Best Friday night so far this year.

Mururoa Atoll, 1971

A 1971 nuclear explosion in Mururoa Atoll, in French Polynesia, resembles something from another world. France announced on March 24, 2009, that it will compensate 150,000 victims of nuclear testing carried out in the 1960s in French Polynesia and Algeria, after decades of denying its responsibility. An initial sum of 10 million euros (14 million dollars) was set aside for military and civilian staff as well as local populations who fell ill from radiation exposure.
