The Odd Couple


"On November 13, Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence. That request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right, but he also knew that someday, he would return to her. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his childhood friend, Oscar Madison. Sometime earlier, Madison's wife had thrown him out, requesting that he never return. Can two divorced men share an apartment without driving each other crazy?"

Sound familiar? I hope so. But if not, it's the opening credits to The Odd Couple, and today is the date referenced. Other interesting things that happened on November 13 include: The World Wide Web being introduced (1990), Saint Augustine of Hippo, Joe "Fat Tony" Mantegna and Robert Louis Stevenson being born, and Ol' Dirty Bastard passing away.

What a day!
