And now, 1866
MDCCCLXVI
I was 100 years away
no full moon in February
promises made, promises broken
Civil Rights Act passed and vetoed
Covid numbers rise: a dark world
total lunar eclipse
Fitz and Boo oblivious
ASPCA founded, NYC
Christmas shopping mostly done
Nickel replaces the half-dime
one count rises, another falls
Metric Act standardizes measurement
even Christmas spirit wears a mask
dynamite invented in Germany
