DTR Breakroom 12.13.09-12.19.09 (The same old breakroom with some flying stuff)

Evening DTR's most wanted.

Got the new one all set up for the week. Beverages are ready, got some good used donuts, floor has been mopped, and the Dragon walked.

Get yourself a cup of your favorite beverage and stay for a while!

Morning all.

Took 2 hours to go 50 miles this morning.



Today is Sunday, December 13.

On this day in 1577 - Five ships under the command of Sir Francis Drake left Plymouth, England, to embark on Drake's circumnavigation of the globe. The journey took almost three years.

1636 - The United States National Guard was created when militia regiments were organized by the General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

1769 - Dartmouth College, in New Hampshire, received its charter.

1809 - The first abdominal surgical procedure was performed in Danville, KY, on Jane Todd Crawford. The operation was performed without an anesthetic.

1862 - In America, an estimated 11,000 Northern soldiers were killed or wounded when Union forces were defeated by Confederates under General Robert E. Lee, at the Battle of Fredericksburg.

1913 - The Federal Reserve System was established as the first U.S. central bank.

1921 - Britain, France, Japan and the United States signed the Pacific Treaty.

1937 - Japanese forces took the Chinese city of Nanking (Nanjing). An estimated 200,000 Chinese were killed over the next six weeks. The event became known as the "Rape of Nanking."

1944 - During World War II, the U.S. cruiser Nashville was badly damaged in a Japanese kamikaze suicide attack. 138 people were killed in the attack.

1961 - Anna Mary Robertson Moses, "Grandma Moses," passed away at the age of 101.

1964 - In El Paso, TX, President Johnson and Mexican President Gustavo Diaz Ordaz set off an explosion that diverted the Rio Grande River, reshaping the U.S.-Mexican border. This ended a century-old border dispute.

wow, that kinda stinks for the daughter! got your PM and say.okay.

hey all, not thinking clearly- tried to go to the 33rd page...none there.
had to talk with a sheriff's investigator, I am not pleased.

weather is just weird, high temps and rain. east side of county has more traffic accidents than people, with ice and snow there, nothing blowing.

2 hours for chaikwa to travel in michigan? maybe I should just stay home.
