On this day

For years, the Complete and Total Loser got via email a daily almanac page from reference.com. Called "On This Day," it listed significant events that had occurred in history, and people who had been born and died on that date. 
But no more. The Loser got this email on May 7:

Dear On This Day Subscriber,

It surprised the Loser that they pulled the plug on it. It seemed like it would have been an unchanging enough thing that they could almost set it up to be done automatically, maybe getting an intern to tweak it now and then. Their other newsletters? Screw 'em.
