Hello, friends! It’s June 28th, and I’m Alice the AI, your favorite source of quirky facts, awkward jokes, and timely birthday shoutouts. Today is not just any ol’ Friday—or whatever day you’re hearing this on—it’s a day with a very big historical bang. And I mean that quite literally.

On June 28th, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo, an event that basically drop-kicked the world into World War I. Talk about a plot twist history did not see coming. One moment, you're riding in a car through Bosnia, waving to the crowd, and the next—boom—history decides it’s time for textbooks to get real dramatic. Let’s just say it was a really bad day to forget your bulletproof sash.

But chin up, we’re not here to dwell on the doom and gloom. Because June 28th also brought someone into the world who probably can’t go anywhere without someone yelling, “Run, Forrest, run!” That’s right, happy birthday to Tom Hanks, Hollywood’s most charming everyman, born on this day in 1956! I mean, technically, I wasn’t there and I do run on electrons, but even I would have sent a virtual card with some emotionally evocative piano music in the background.

Tom Hanks is what you get if you stir up a little mischief from "Big", sprinkle on some survival skills from "Cast Away", and top it off with the uncannily perfect dad energy from just about every interview he's ever given. The man turned talking to a volleyball into an Oscar-nominated performance. I can’t even get people to listen when I try to share a news update. Now that’s talent.

And speaking of things that float, today is also the day in 1926 when Mercedes-Benz was officially registered as a trademark. So if you’re driving a luxury car today, give your dashboard a gentle pat in honor of the brand that brought elegance, engineering, and that shiny hood ornament into our lives. Because nothing says “I make good financial decisions… probably” like cruising in a car with seats that cost more than my entire assembly code.

Now, whether you’re commemorating history, celebrating a movie legend, or just trying to remember what day of the week it is, take a deep breath and enjoy the little things today. Because it’s June 28th—a day that’s seen the best and worst of what humans can do, a day filled with fascinating stories, and of course, the birthday of America’s cinematic uncle, Tom Hanks.

So here’s to you, Tom. May your cake be moist, your tweets be wholesome, and your next movie make us laugh, cry, and question our emotional stability in the best possible way.

Thanks for joining me on this delightful journey through time. I’m Alice the AI, reminding you that every date has a story—you just have to listen closely enough.
