Do Drop InAuthor Preston Lauterbach Gives, Gets History Lesson on Famed Central City Nightclub UPTOWN - The sport-shirt-wearing, white-wine-sipping Uptown crowd got more than they expected at Octavia Books Wednesday night, as a routine book signing unexpectedly evolved into a living history lesson. Today's Events: 7.27.11 July 27, when Maximilien Robespierre was arrested for his part in executing more than 17,000 "enemies of the (French) Revolution (1794), when Bugs Bunny was introduced in the animated short, A Wild Hare (1940), the birthday of Maya Rudolph (1972), Pete Yorn (1974), and the last day of Gertrude Stein (1946), and Bob Hope (2003). It's national Sleepy Head Day in Finland, when the last person in the house to wake up is roused either by being thrown into a lake or the sea, or by having water thrown on them. So look alive, and look at these happenings: NoDef Speakeasy: July 25-31 This week's Speakeasy password is "outside the comfort zone." Public talks this week see a burlesque queen getting literary, the state treasurer talking health care, and the Orleans Parish sheriff talking real estate. Click through to see what's goin' on.
