Datebook:
1922, the LONGEST ATTACK OF HICCUPS began on this day . . . and lasted 69 YEARS. Charlie Osborne hiccupped over 435 MILLION times before it went away. He died just 11 months after his hiccups stopped in 1991 . . . at age 98.
51 years ago . . . In 1966, police became required to tell suspects THEIR RIGHTS because of the Supreme Court's decision in the Miranda v. Arizona case.

In 1995, three years before GEORGE MICHAEL, trend-setting country singer TY HERNDON was arrested for EXPOSING HIMSELF to a policeman. There were reports that he was giving himself a naughty rub-and-tug, but Ty says he was just taking a leak. (A charge of "very" indecent exposure was eventually dropped, but Ty Herndon did plead guilty to possession of METH . . . DON'T TAKE DRUGS!)
