thursday threesome

::Memories from the Past::

Onesome: Memories from-- a few years back: what were you doing on 9-11? it was just starting Period 2, I was probably teaching something about Colonial History

Twosome: the-- thought occurs: Should this be a holiday? ...or perhaps a day of remembrance with a moment of silence nationwide? Not a holiday... that would commercialize it and it will lose its meaning. I like the day of remembrance idea with a nationwide moment of silence.

Threesome: Past-- 'days that will live in infamy': do you recall any other days of tragedy that have a placeholder on your mental calendar? the Challenger explosion, I was watching it on TV in an education class, celebrating Krista McAuliffe.

Bonus: Who's quote did I paraphrase in the question above? FDR on Pearl Harbor's bombing
