1959: The Big Bopper coins the term “music video”
According to some music historians, singer and songwriter Jiles Perry Richardson, who went by The Big Bopper, became the first person to use the phrase “music video” in a 1959 interview with a British magazine. (Richardson died that same year in the plane crash that also killed Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens.) The “Chantilly Lace” singer is also credited with making some of the earliest known rock videos in 1958.

Sweet...okay,

Who wrote the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution?

Subject: Re: Trivia Sat Sep 28, 2013 6:49 pm

it was based on the English common law and their bill of rights 1680 something i forget the exact year and out lined by william blackstone

Subject: Re: Trivia Mon Sep 30, 2013 7:50 pm

Well...yes, I believe that's true, but not the answer I was looking for.

Hint: While the idea may have originated in another time & place, the actual 2nd Amendment to our Constitution was written by an American for our use here in the good ole USA

Subject: Re: Trivia Mon Sep 30, 2013 11:49 pm

are you talking about James Madison that proposed it to the constitution

Subject: Re: Trivia Wed Oct 02, 2013 12:07 am

Yup...The second amendment to the US constitution was written by James Madison, who became a member of the Philadelphia Constitutional Convention in 1787. It was presented to the House of Representatives in Congress on 8 June 1789 and ratified in December 1791. It was one of a total of 10 amendments drafted by Madison, who is thus often known as the "Father of the Bill of Rights"!

Subject: Re: Trivia Wed Oct 02, 2013 12:34 am

he actually didn't want to put the 2nd amendment in the constitution but only did because he thought the states would not ratify the other amendments

Subject: Re: Trivia Wed Oct 02, 2013 12:41 am
