June 26, 1961 - John F. Kennedy tells the German nation and pastry lovers everywhere "Ich bin ein Berliner"; whether or not he is, in fact, a jelly donut remains a matter of speculation to this day.

It was later proven not to be violence that broke out, but just stoned white people dancing.

June 27, 1995 - The LAPD arrested streetwalker Divine Brown on Hawthorn Ave. where she was discovered giving British movie star Hugh Grant a blowjob in his white BMW. To be fair, they also arrested Grant for procuring said blowjob.

Also on this same date in 2001, police arrested comedian Paula Poundstone in Malibu, California on charges of lewd conduct with a minor.

Apparently, June 27th is California Celebrity Unzip Day...

June 28, 1914 - During a parade in Sarajevo, Nedjelko Cabrinovic tossed a grenade into the automobile carrying Archduke Franz Ferdinand and wife Sofia. But Ferdinand knocked the bomb away with his arm and his driver sped away from the would-be assassin. A short while later, during the return drive, Gavrilo Princip pulled out an automatic pistol and killed both Ferdinand and his pregnant wife. Five weeks later, the continent of Europe erupted into World War I.

Wait, didn't we just end that thing above?

Yeah, I never realized the time it took from the end of hostilities to the signing of the treaty. The fighting ended on November 11, 1918 and the treaty wasn't signed until June 28, 1919

On the very same date, June 29, 1967, actress Jayne Mansfield was scalped and killed in a car crash, when her convertible collided with a parked tractor-trailer. To downplay the gruesome death, sources spread the falsehood that only her wig flew off in the accident, but it was actually the top portion of her head (which is not technically a decapitation).

Mansfield's children were asleep in the backseat and survived the accident, including a 3-year old Mariska Hargitay.
