April BlogMeet!

Yes, it is official and you're invited! The April Indy BlogMeet will be this coming Sunday, 24 April at 3:00 pm at the famous Broad Ripple Brew Pub.

In addition to the obvious, it's an historical date -- the Spanish-American War (™ 1898, Hearst Newspapers) started, Jimmy Carter's mission to rescue hostages in Iran fell apart, the Irish revolted (again) and in 1924, Governor of Indiana Warren T. McCray resigned after being found guilty of mail fraud (an interesting example of a man being right and wrong at the same time).

Also on this date, Apple introduced the Apple IIc portable computer, no doubt to shorter lines of fans, some of whom nevertheless had surely camped out overnight to be at the front of the line.
