This Day in History



1972
The Rolling Stones released "Exile on Main St.", considered by fans to be their best album of all-time. It's rumored that if played backwards, all of Keith Richards' vocal parts on the album can be heard in flawless King's English.


1982
With help from his trusty utility belt, Pope John Paul II escaped a knifing by a Spanish priest while visiting the shrine of Fatima in Portugal.
