Happy Birthday, PK!

Not only did my father survive Hurricane Charlie (after threatening and chasing off a sheriff's lackey who was implementing a mandatory evacuation (!)) but he's made it to his 66th birthday -- unless you count the day of his actual birth, in which case today is his 67th birthday, I guess.

According to the Un*x calendar program that greets my every open terminal window, today is also the anniversary of these two events, both of which would please PK, I think:

1 Sep

Bobby Fischer defeats Boris Spassky in World Chess Match, 1972

1 Sep

Joshua A. Norton proclaims himself 'Emperor Norton I', 1859
