July 26th

1775: The Second Continental Congress establishes the birth of what would later become the United States Post Office. The original document is signed by all the delegates, but is lost in the mail.

1977: National Assembly of Quebec imposes the use of French as the official language of the province... the law fails miserably when experts are unable to find the French equivalents of the words "eh," "hoser," and "betcha."


1994: Russian President Boris Yeltsin orders the removal of Russian troops from Estonia and 15,000 gallons of beer and vodka from his abdomen.
