Today is the birthday of the US Marine Corps, formed in a tavern in Philadelphia. Happy Birthday, Marines.
Today is also the anniversary of the loss of the Edmund Fitzgerald, a Great Lakes freighter lost in a storm in 1975 with all hands. It was a very sad day for mariners. Gordon Lightfoot compounded the sadness when he sang a song about the tragedy.
PawPaw is busier than a cat in a sandbox today. Tomorrow is my day, and I'll hoist a glass tomorrow.
