Sir Edmund Hillary, First Man to Conquer Mount Everest, Dies at 88.
Sir Edmund Hillary, the unassuming beekeeper who conquered Mount Everest to win renown as one of the 20th century’s greatest adventurers, has died, New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark announced Friday. He was 88.
Sen. Clinton has a touching story about how she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary, world famous adventurer. Even though she was born way before Hillary climbed Mt. Everest. She has another touching story about how that happened.
Then there’s the advice a 911 operator had to tell a caller at the scene where a mother, who ‘didn’t know she was pregnant’, had a baby on the toilet and tried to flush it away.
Is the baby still in the toilet? YES . Take it out of the toilet.
Thankfully, the baby was revived and is OK. Thank goodness for the 911 operator, she saved a life. 911 operators often don’t get the credit they deserve for having to deal with people like that.
