What Was In the News the Day You Were Born?

All the news headlines on my birthday were about the Waco siege, pretty grim stuff, not a newspaper you would want to frame as a gift. What was going on in the world the day you were born?

It wasn’t on the day i was born but the year.

2 things happened-

  1. Our next door neighbours house burnt down and it was going to our house and my older brother was the only one awake and he smelt the smoke and he woke everyone up so if he didn’t us and the next door neighbors probably would’ve died in a fire :grimacing:. It was then on the news.

  2. My dad was on the news as “best dad of the year” They got that wrong but whatever lol :joy:

It wasn’t something very interesting or exciting. My parents kept a newspaper from my birthday and on the cover is some politician saying that he’s done nothing wrong :joy:
