Today in American History: 1867 U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward signed a treaty with Russia to purchase Alaska for $7.2 million (about two cents per acre). Initially ridiculed as a wasteful “icebox,” the deal proved valuable after the Klondike Gold Rush and for its vast natural resources. Today the estimated value of natural resources in Alaska is around $5 trillion in value.

We owe $8,000 to the IRS because we withdrew money to take care of my wife's mother to move her near us so we can take care of her. Do you know how hard it is to see these stories showing the fraud and corruption taking place with our tax money when writing the check?

SECRETARY RUBIO: Iran is making threats about controlling the Strait of Hormuz and creating a tolling system. That’s not going to be allowed to happen. There is a way forward here to achieve our objectives in a matter of weeks, not months.

In 1973, a 26-year-old English teacher in the United States threw three pages of a story into the bin. He thought it was terrible. He was done with it. His wife pulled the pages out of the trash, smoothed them out, and read them. That story became one of the bestselling novels in history. At the time, Stephen King was living in a trailer in Maine with his wife Tabitha and two small children. He taught English at a private high school. She worked the second shift at Dunkin’ Donuts. He also worked summers at an industrial laundry and took extra jobs as a janitor and a gas pump attendant. He could not afford his own typewriter. He used his wife’s, set up on a makeshift desk she had fitted between the washing machine and the dryer. He had already written three novels. None of them were published. Then he started writing a story about a bullied teenage girl with supernatural powers. After three pages, he hated it. He felt he did not understand the character and could not make it work. He crumpled the pages and threw them away. The next day, he came home from work and found Tabitha reading those pages. She had pulled them out of the bin, covered in cigarette ash, and sat down to read them. “You’ve got something here,” she told him. “If you don’t know how teenage girls act, I’ll help you with that part. Just finish it.” He finished it. The book was called Carrie. It was rejected by 30 publishers. Then one finally said yes. They did not even own a telephone. When the publisher called to accept the book, Tabitha had to dress up the kids, walk to the neighbour’s house, and call Stephen at work. He said she had never called him at work before. When he picked up the phone, they were both out of breath. The advance was $2,500. He used it to move his family out of the trailer. Carrie went on to sell over 1 million copies in its first year. Stephen King has since published over 60 novels. More than 350 million copies sold worldwide. But none of it would have happened if Tabitha King had not pulled three crumpled pages out of a bin in their laundry room.
