        Wonder if Capone had gold plated toilets in his pre big house days or if that’s a modern di$play of a gauche decorating style?

        Glad you asked! He did have a gold plated pistol. His hideout cottage in Couderay Wisconsin had zebra skins, stuffed owls, Egyptian mahogany and eight limousine garage. Also a machine gun tower and gun port holes in the walls. Gold-plated paranoia.pic.twitter.com/wB6Kr9wfG8

        "In the end, it took a team of federal, state, and local authorities to end Capone’s reign as underworld boss. Precisely the kind of partnerships that are needed today as well to defeat dangerous criminals and terrorists."https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/news/stories/2005/march/capone_032805 …

        How many noticed that #ThomasEdison died on this date? Check the date of the Newspaper - 17 October 1931. The interesting point is that history records his date of death as the 18th of Oct 1931. Chicago is 1 hour behind east coast time of New Jersey where Edison passed away.

        For the record, this is not a real newspaper page. The print is all digital—it looks nothing like old news typesetting.
