On This Day

On September 2nd, 1945, the formal ceremony ending World War II took place aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.

It took the United States 1366 days to help end World War II after the attack at Pearl Harbor.

This is the 1263rd day of the Iraq War.

It is time to invoke “Momma’s Rule for Meals”: you can’t go back for more, until you finish everything on your plate. Until Afghanistan and Iraq are over, don’t even think about Iran.

If they are going to act like whiny pre-schoolers, treat them like whiny pre-schoolers.

“Momma’s Rules For Meals” has me chuckling every time I think of it. Couldn’t watch the news last night without giggling.

That goes back generations in my family. I heard it from my great grandmother on down: “No more mashed potatoes until those beets are gone.”
