this was on my fun fact calendar today and i thought it would be nice to share it...i didnt know this adn i thought hhmm i wonder who else does not know this...so here we go...put your learning caps on...
That famous hillside Hollywood sign started out in 1923 as Hollywoodland, a kind of billboard for a housing development.
BUT when the sign began to fall aprt from neglect (imagine that) in the 1940s, civic leaders stepped in. They got the bright idea of removing the lasy syllable, fixing up the rest and using it to advertise the movie industry...pretty cool huh?!
well i thought so at least lol...what can i say im a geek for stuff like that
