Well… Here it is: “December 7th, A Day That Will Live In Infamy…” Oh – not the 76th anniversary of the botched attack on Pearl Harbor (which was never intended to be a surprise {though I don’t mean to defend “the enemy’s” actions – named, as I am, after a…
…. aka The Return of WhyFly – Again Glenn asked me to post these NEW articles for you, so I’ll shut up from here and leave the stage to him. Enjoy ! I can’t believe it’s been ten months since the last episode of “Those Thrilling Days of Yesteryear.” Michelle…
