Associated Press: Ed Donahue: 'Today in History For July 30th'

Source:Associated Press- go back in time.

"Highlights of this day in history:  Ex-Teamsters leader Jimmy Hoffa disappears; Medicare and Medicaid signed into law; A blast rocks Black Tom Island; The USS Indianapolis sunk; Henry Ford and Arnold Schwarzenegger born." 


The Jimmy Hoffa story is obviously fascinating, for the simple reason that we'll never know what happened to him, or why it happened to him. The best guess is that we either murdered or died at some point during the summer of 1975. He wasn't exactly Howard Hughes who was afraid to be seen in public. Hoffa was obviously a very public man as a labor celebrity and one of the founders of modern Las Vegas. So had he lived much longer after this point, we would've heard about it.
