I've been deluged in work lately, hence the lack of posts. Not only did I have neither time nor energy to post, I never left the house, so I had no material.
On inauguration day, I snagged this link. Just when you start to think of something as comfortably filed under Ancient History, wham! The relative of a living witness steps forward.
I'm reminded of teaching English in Spokane. We were analyzing great oratory, among it MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech. I made some reference to the speech having occurred before we were all born, and my students—all of six years younger than me—collectively gasped in shock. It was inconceivable that their ancient teacher hadn't been alive for something.
I took down names.
