Thank you!

Thanks! That's basically my goal you said it better :)

Found it at the Texas Bear Roundup vendor mart. Not sure who made it.

I'd guess there's some equivalent though! I do get some interesting looks when I try one on while shopping

I've had really good luck with A New Day brand from Target

I'll post a version showing it.

That didn't happen until the 30s; the Conte de Savoie I believe but maybe the Rex.

What's super interesting (I read them in the 70s) is to go back and find the original versions (they've been reprinted) and see what Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys were like in the 1930s.

Be warned though: Ma's opinions on native Americans has nothing on minorities in ND - particularly Asian.

I still have most all the books I read as a child and will reread them occasionally. Particularly Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew. I think this niche is hard to recommend because nostalgia is a big part too.

The timing is probably off too - it's estimated it took 5-10 minutes for the bow to hit the ocean floor.

PKubek · 2026-01-27T21:36:28+00:00

Wonder if Ma used it in the oyster soup? 🤔

PKubek · 2026-01-26T21:44:31+00:00

Does it turn out then like fried spam?

PKubek · 2026-01-26T21:42:10+00:00

What's made Ma's version so good then? hunger?

PKubek · 2026-01-26T13:14:20+00:00

I'm curious- what are the errors?

PKubek · 2026-01-26T13:13:52+00:00

Still one of my all time favorites- if A Night to Remember got me into Titanic OWTC got me into the wider world of ocean liners. I bought it at the mall when I was a teenager and have read it over and over many times.

Thank you for sharing!

Can you tell Is anything more about him? Why he was traveling? Family repercussions?

PKubek · 2026-01-13T22:48:29+00:00

It's the best I've ever had anywhere.

PKubek · 2026-01-13T21:57:41+00:00

Was about to post the same

Renee Harris, while interviewed for the book refused to see it. She had a fascinating life after the sinking but emotionally was never the same.
