Each year on May 27 it is National Grape Popsicle Day.

In San Francisco, California, in 1905, 11-yr-old Frank Epperson was outside on his porch, mixing water with a white powdered flavoring to make soda.  Upon going inside, it left it there, on the porch, with the stirring stick still in it.  That night in California, the temperature reached a record low and the following morning, Frank discovered the drink had frozen to the stick.  This inspired the fruit-flavored "Popsicle".

What Famous Fathers Would Say

• Christopher Columbus' Father: I don't care what you've discovered, Christopher.  You could have written.
