Thoughts for the day
A nice fall day, but a little windy…thankfully no sand blowing. I’m just
sitting here awaiting a FedEx delivery of my meds that are making me well.
There is still no end in sight, following the latest vote by the Senate.
Now some Republicans are saying this shutdown could go on until after Thanksgiving.
It is time to stop Congressional paychecks until the shutdown ends…and include
the White House residents when the pay is stopped. Do the jobs you were elected
for and end the shutdown. Americans are being hurt everyday as programs are not
being funded, prices keep going up, help from the Feds is not there. Shameful.
2025 Anniversaries
1975 Fall of Saigon, 50 Years
On April 30, 1975, North
Vietnamese tanks reached the Presidential Palace in Saigon, ending the Vietnam
War. Operation Frequent Wind, April 29 to 30, lifted thousands by helicopter to
U.S. ships like USS Midway. The Midway is now a museum in San Diego with a Huey
and a Sea Knight on deck. Deck signs post rail heights and no-climb zones, so
follow them on busy weekends. The anniversary connects TV images of rooftop
evacuations with timelines taught in U.S. history classes.

Your History Textbook
Marie Van Brittan
Brown’s Home Security System
Working
as a nurse on late shifts, Marie Van Brittan Brown mapped fear to a plan. She
patented a home security system in 1969 that placed a camera behind peepholes,
routed images to interior monitors, and linked to a remote door latch and
police alert. The design set the template for closed circuit surveillance in
homes and small businesses. It did not sell fear. It offered control, evidence,
and precious minutes that can separate a scare from a tragedy.
Random Thoughts…
The nursery rhyme
never said Humpty Dumpty was an egg.
This world is so complicated, we must be educated for 18 years of our life,
just to work at KFC.
The oldest person on earth has been alive for every birthday of every person in
the world.
Eat whatever you want. If someone criticizes you about your weight - eat him
too!
