Pearl Harbor today as we looked back from the Arizona Memorial's ferry to the permanently moored U.S.S. Missouri.
The consequent War Effort as Memorialized at the Nevada State Museum which was formerly the Carson City Mint:
In one way or another each of us, through our individual legacies, have been impacted by the aftermath of that December 7th day of 1941 which as stated in the words of the then President, "lives in infamy." Like many others, my own father in his personal history described the impact of that day on his decision to defend his Country.
He wrote, "After Pearl Harbor Day, I decided that i would prefer to serve my country in the Navy." At the time he lived on a ranch near Elko, Nevada. He enlisted in the Navy in Salt Lake City. It was during his service that he met my mother at church in Chicago where he was spending nine months in aviation metalsmith school which was located on Chicago's Navy Pier.
I, my siblings, and our progeny would not be here today but for Pearl Harbor.
Next time I will take a picture, but it had black beans, pinto beans, brown rice, cheese, shredded, sour cream, and grilled chicken.
Very tasty and actually pretty healthy! 👍
My wife was with me when I started reading your message. By the time I got to the
cheese my heart was racing and I was breathing heavy. The paramedics arrived and
showed me the dinner menu from Chipotle Grill. After 20 minutes and a Door Dash
delivery did they feel it was safe to deliver me to Moes Southwest Grill.

And in memory of the man who was responsible for rescuing and preserving so many of the above Titanic artifacts which are part of the Titanic exhibit at the Luxor in Las Vegas, the below was posted in the weeks that followed his untimely death this past year while he was once again in proximity to the ship.
While the burger looks "yummy", those onion rings really
caught my eye. I could make meal just on those rings.
Onion rings prepared that way are the best.

A Blast from the pas. Personally, I preferred Cassette tapes.

Did that in-the-dashboard record player even work when the car is hitting potholes and speed bumps?

I’m usually pretty simple when it comes to Pizza, I’m either cheese only or pepperoni and onions. Typically I’m kind of boring with pizza

Judging by the age of that picture, those dollars are probably like 20 bucks today, that would definitely be one way of slowing cars down!
