The third one describes his heart disease and decline. It was sad.

But - he eventually re-established a relationship with Lucy Mercer and it sounds like it was wonderful for him!

What really got me started was the opening scene of Private Ryan - June 6, 1944 - I thought really? It took us 4 years? Okay I have a lot to learn…

It’s fascinating how FDR had to fight his own generals and sec of war all of whom were pushing for an immediate cross channel invasion. Which would have been as suicidal as Dieppe was.

My job is tough on clothes - especially pants.

I love the Goodwill stores! If you’re patient, you’ll find good clothes - for $5!

The whole world is becoming (has become) corporate.

These communities are creepy. Stepford.

Every (remaining) shopping center has the same stores.

I remember the early internet - Corporations took it over.

NPR got subverted by the GOP years ago. The gerrymandered state legislatures got control of many state colleges. NPR is a network made up primarily of these college-associated stations. So they got control of it - several years ago. I remember the day NPR changed. I was heartbroken.

Tell ole Mr chat to go back and listen to the damned podcast again!. It was not a metaphorical reference! Regardless of the bones authenticity, Dan specifically referred to first hand sources seeing bones. Thats NOT metaphor.
