Today is the 65th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. “A day that will live in infamy”, I wonder how true that is. One thing that has always bothered me is that I never studied W.W.2 in school. All that I know of the history has been told to me by people who were there, or is from books that I sought out. Over the years I have had many conversations with people my age and younger and in general I find that their knowledge of the war and the events leading up to it is slim.

I have no way of knowing if my experience in the public school system is common. I did some hunting around on the net to find some kind of curicullum guidelines with no luck. It is something I am curious about.

The Seminole Tribe of Florida has purchase the Hard Rock Cafe franchise. This seems like an obvious move to bring gambling to many their locations although, it’s not playing that way in the press.

Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa has requested a meeting with Barry Bonds?? Just say no, Tony.
