Linda's Birthday

Thursday, April 26th: I think it was Linda Ruf's birthday today. A handful of enthusiastic 4th-floor people gathered for this photo-taking moment.

Here are a few notable people who were also born on April 26: Tomoyuki Tanaka (co-creator of the 'Godzilla' movies), Jet Li (actor), Carol Burnett (comedian), and Roger Taylor (drummer for Duran Duran).

Fifty years ago, Louis St. Laurent was the prime minister of Canada, until he was replaced by John Diefenbaker in June. In the United States, Dwight Eisenhower was the president. Wham-O started selling the Frisbee. Dr. Seuss' "The Cat in the Hat" was published. And in October 1957 the first artificial satellite, Sputnik, was launched.
