At random: The USS SKATE (SSN 578) was the first vessel ever to surface at the North Pole, when on March 17, 1959 she surfaced there to conduct memorial services for the renowned Arctic explorer Sir Hubert Wilkins.

It was 50 years ago today that a plane crashed near Clear Lake, Iowa and killed 4 people.

Can you name all 4?

Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, J.P. 'The Big Bopper' Richardson and the pilot, Roger Peterson.

I've seen Buddy Holly's larger-than-life statue in Lubbock, Texas.

I've been listening to his music all day.

Cora wins the prize!!!! Everyone forgets there was a pilot aboard. Roger Peterson!! His family misses him too.

I, too, have seen the statue in Lubbock. Stayed in a hotel right next to it in the middle of a sand storm.

Yeh, Buddy is THE MAN. The Big Bopper.

"Peggy Sue, Peggy Sue, Pretty Pretty Pretty, Peggy Sue"

His music has always inspired me too, Cora.
