43 years ago.  Never forget those who we lost.....

Youth, exuberance, and enthusiasm are no match for age, experience, and treachery.

Alcohol, tobacco, and firearms.  Should be a convenience store, not a federal agency.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse.... A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I've always found The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald rather haunting.

Disasters from before I was born often make me wonder by what graces I made it here.

I get that.  It's a particularly weird feeling when you see one of your ancestors listed among the survivors of such a disaster.  (Naturally, not the Fitz, but a different disaster.)
