May 30th Today In History

1431 Joan of Arc was burned today You know what they had to say She’s blasphemous – there’s trickery A sorceress – it’s witchery A public burning sets the scene Poor Joan was only aged nineteen 1536 On this day its wedding bliss As Henry 8 took his third Ms Jane Seymour married Henry 8 Eleven days past Ann B.’s fate She died of childbirth in her bed Would Henry have let her keep her head? 1908 Bugs’s voice and Porky Pig Tweety Bird and can you dig Elmer Fudd and Daffy Duck Woody, Wile E. and his luck So many voices and who’s to thank Happy Birthday to Mel Blanc Mdailey 5/30/11
