There are 126 days left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On Aug. 27, 1883, the island volcano Krakatoa erupted with a series of cataclysmic explosions. The explosions (which could be heard 3,000 miles away) and resulting tsunamis in Indonesia's Sunda Strait claimed some 36,000 lives in Java and Sumatra.
On this date:
In 1894, Congress passed the Wilson-Gorman Tariff Act, which contained a provision for a graduated income tax that was later struck down by the Supreme Court.
In 1964, the film "Mary Poppins" had its world premiere in Los Angeles, California.
In 1979, British war hero Lord Louis Mountbatten and three other people, including his 14-year-old grandson Nicholas, were killed off the coast of Ireland in a boat explosion claimed by the Irish Republican Army.
In 1982, Rickey Henderson of the Oakland A's stole his 119th base of the season, breaking Lou Brock's single-season stolen base record. (Henderson would finish the season with a still-unmatched 130 stolen bases.)
In 1990, blues musician Stevie Ray Vaughn and four others were killed in a helicopter crash near East Troy, Wisconsin.
In 2001, Israeli helicopters fired a pair of rockets through office windows, killing senior PLO leader Mustafa Zibri.
In 2005, coastal residents jammed freeways and gas stations as they rushed to avoid Hurricane Katrina, which was headed toward New Orleans.
In 2008, Barack Obama was nominated for president by the Democratic National Convention in Denver, becoming the first Black presidential nominee from a major political party.
In 2011, Hurricane Irene made landfall in the United States; the storm would be responsible for 49 total deaths and more than $14 billion in damage.

I definitely wasn't aware of most of those. I'd also add that 90% of the songs listed didn't need to be recorded the first time, never mind covered. I should preface this by telling you how much I can't stand Joan Jett. Almost as much as I detest George Thorogood. But I digress.Won't argue with this list other than there's plenty more to add.Lot of clunkers there, for sure.

Agreed. I didn't get what they were going for until I got the spangram, and I was still guessing after that point, cause I've never seen the movie.1 extra, which was part of another answer. Took me a minute to get this one, as I'm not familiar with the subject.Pixar hint sucked.

I thought it was clever. I feel like they often do stuff like this. The overall clue was a hint for the spangram and nothing more. The remaining 5 words were derived from the spangram, but had nothing to do with the original clue.Agreed.
