    Tipping the mail carrier: a thing of the past?

    These folks (not all of them) do a lot of things that are above and beyond the call. A letter to a supervisor is better than any tip. We don't hesitate to complain, but are so reluctant in expressing appreciation. Postal services are not perfect, but after you have walked a postal round...

    Custom shirts

    A few fellows here at work get business shirts from T.M. Lewin in the UK. I have not ordered as yet, but quality appears good and price is very reasonable if a quantity is ordered. T

    The Attack on Pearl Harbor - December 7, 1941

    Did she survive? The Japanese did not treat nurses well. Not that they treated anyone well, but barbarism towards non combatant medical staff is hard to understand.

    House histories?

    I have since moved and can't offer pics, but had a nice experience in my last house. My wife and I were working in the front yard of our house when some passers by stopped to talk. Turns out their grandparents built the house in '28. We took them through the house. Not much had changed...

    Christmas decorations.
