The Pony Express was a mail service delivering messages, newspapers, mail, and small packages from St. Joseph, Missouri, across the Great Plains, over the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevada to Sacramento, California, by horseback, using a series of relay stations.
Officially operating as the Leavenworth and Pike's Peak Express Company of 1859, which in 1860 became the Central Overland California and Pikes Peak Express Company, this firm was founded by William H. Russell, Alexander Majors, and William B. Waddell all of whom were notable in the freighting business.
During its 19 months of operation, it reduced the time for messages to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts to about 10 days. From April 3, 1860 to October 1861, it became the West's most direct means of east–west communication before the telegraph was established and was vital for tying the new state of California with the rest of the United States.
The idea of a fast mail route to the Pacific coast was prompted largely by California's newfound prominence and its rapidly growing population. After gold was discovered there in 1848, thousands of prospectors, investors and businessmen made their way to California, at that time a new territory of the U.S. By 1850, California entered the Union as a free state. By 1860, the population had grown to 380,000. The demand for a faster way to get mail and other communications to and from this westernmost state became even greater as the American Civil War approached.

One of the tightest jams ever put on wax! There wasn't a version on YouTube with good audio so I thought i'd give you my own. I always wondered though: Why wasn't Slick Vic on this track? I mean Lock and the rest of the crew rocked it and there's a lot of DJs down with JPE that did'nt ride on here. But Vic was the main man... You know? So, it would.ve only been right for him to ride out on the lead single. Crazy to me. But either way it turned out alright. This is classic sh*t!

MANILA, Philippines -- A word war between Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile and Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano went "down to the gutter" after Enrile said Cayetano's father, the late Sen. Rene Cayetano, still owed him P37 million.
Geh' ins Bett, kleiner Depp,
Mach schon, komm, sei nett,
Denn es ist schon so spaet!
Mach's Licht aus, komm, sei brav
Und geniesse den Schlaf,
Den das Sandmaennchen saet!
Schlaf mit ein'm Aug' offen,
Und halt' dei' Kissen fest!
Schlaf Kindlein, schlaf,
Dei' Mutter is' a Schaf,
Dein Vater ist in Pommerland,
Und Pommerland ist abgebrannt.
Traeum' von Pariser Bier
Und von Ungetier,
Und von Emanzipation,
Traeum von Heinz, sowieso,
Und von J.B.O.
Das ist schrecklich mein Sohn!
Schlaf mit ei'm Aug' offen,
Und halt' dei' Nilschwein fest!
Chorus
Lieber Gott, mach mich fromm,
Dass ich in den Himmel komm!
Komm, kleiner Depp, schlaf endlich ein
Und hoer' auf so rumzuschrei'n,
Sonst schmeissen wir dich auf den Dung-
Postnatale Abtreibung!
Schlaf Kindlein, schlaf,
Dei' Mutter is' a Schaf
Pommerland,
Und Pommerland ist abgebrannt.
Schlaf Kindlein, schlaf,
Dei' Vater f(piep)t a Schaf,
Pommerland,
Und Pommerland ist abgebrannt.
