Today in History: 1838 - Samuel Morse made 1st public demonstration of telegraph 1914 - Stock brokerage firm of Merrill Lynch founded 1963 - "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" with Marlin Perkins premiers on NBC Used to love this program. 1973 - "Schoolhouse Rock," premieres on ABC-TV with Multiplication Rock 1975 - "Wheel Of Fortune," debuts on NBC-TV I still watch this if I happen to be home when it's on. I'm pretty good at solving the puzzles. Have no idea if I could do it there at the studio, though, with a live audience and cameras all over the place. I'd probably be a bumbling idiot!
