But Pa, I was just going out to the TRIVIA QUIZ!
Today is National Neighborhood Day and Make Your Bed Day.
Today is also National Tricky Handshake Day.
On this day in 1954, California’s 19-year-old Lee Ann Meriwether was crowned Miss America in the first televised pageant. John Daly hosted the show on ABC. Lee Ann became a regular on "The Clear Horizon," "The Time Tunnel," "The New Andy Griffith Show," "Barnaby Jones," "The New Masquerade Party," "The New Munsters," and "All My Children."
On this day in 1974, "Little House on the Prairie" premiered on NBC-TV, starring Michael Landon, Karen Grassle, Melissa Gilbert, Melissa Sue Anderson, and twins Lindsay and Sidney Greenbush. I'm pretty sure my sister has seen every episode!
A little more baseball trivia as we get closer to the world series...Whose hit record did Pete Rose beat on this day in 1985?
Good luck :)

Keep those baseball questions coming! Pete Rose passed Ty Cobb as the all-time hit leader with his 4,192nd hit...I believe he finished with 4,256.
Wooo! One I know. Jon's right, it was mr. ty cobb. When Pete wasn't busy betting on games, he was a singles machine.
Who was the pitcher that gave up that hit?
Well at the risk of this answer being too corny, it was indeed Ty COBb!
Interesting follow-up, Mark! I'll leave that one for Jon to figure out. I do know that President Reagan called to congratulate Rose after it happened.
The name that comes to mind is Floyd Youmans, but he might not have been pitching as EARly as 1985...I'll keep thinking.
